Personalized medicine has been a booming area in clinical research for the past decade, in which the detailed information about the patient genotype and clinical conditions were collected and considered to optimize the therapy to prevent adverse reactions. However, the utility of commercially available personalized medicine has not yet been maximized due to the lack of a structured protocol for implementation. In this narrative review, we explain the role of pharmacogenetics in personalized medicine, next-generation personalized medicine, i.e., patient-centric personalized medicine, in which the patient's comfort is considered along with pharmacogenomics to be a primary factor. We extensively discuss the classifications, strategies, tools, and drug delivery systems that can support the implementation of patient-centric personalized medicine from an industrial perspective.
