Looking for drug interaction information on the Internet, I found this quote on
this website:  http://www.prozactruth.com/cancer_medications.htm

December 24, 2004 - "The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) today cleared for marketing the first laboratory test system that will allow physicians to consider unique genetic information from patients in selecting medications and doses of medications for a wide variety of common conditions such as cardiac disease, psychiatric disease, and cancer."

“Physicians can use the genetic information from this test to prevent harmful drug interactions and to assure drugs are used optimally, which in some cases will enable patients to avoid less effective or potentially harmful treatment choices,” said Dr. Lester M. Crawford, Acting FDA Commissioner

They list Gleevec as one of the drugs they test for.  Any information from anyone on this list?
