ClinPGx Drug Classification Survey

We would like to improve the drug categories that are used on the PharmDOG and the GSI results pages to group annotated drugs and are asking the user community to help us out by responding to our survey.

Currently, drugs are grouped using the World Health Organization's Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical (ATC) Classification. ClinPGx uses ATC groupings throughout the website, but we've received feedback that this classification is not intuitive to clinicians. Unfortunately, most drug classification hierarchies that clinicians use, including those available in many hospital and pharmacy systems and those such as the AHFS Pharmacologic-Therapeutic Classification System and DrugBank, are not freely available and don't allow for redistribution on a public website. So we need an alternative.

We are running a survey until the end of July to see what terms you prefer for clearer drug categories that are clinician-friendly to use in our genotype-based reports. We have selected a set of 30 annotated drugs for the survey. If you participate, you will be presented with one drug at a time and a few suggested categories and sub-categories. Pick the terms you prefer, or suggest your own. It's up to you how many you answer - every answer helps us! You can skip any drug that doesn't interest you and stop whenever you want. It takes less than 5 minutes to go through the full list. Your responses are anonymous and will only be used internally to help us improve drug categories.

Thanks in advance for your participation!
