Answer:

A. Pharmacogenomics

Explanation:

The use of persons genetic makeup or information or genome, to select or choose the medicine and dosage of the drugs to be administered  that will likely work t for that particular person is called Pharmacogenomics . This  field of science combines the knowledge of how drugs work, called pharmacology, with the knowledge of the human genome, called genomics.

The aim of Pharmacogenomics is to optimize drug therapy, with consideration on the patients' genotype. Moreover it targets to ensure maximum efficiency with minimum adverse reactions. By utilizing pharmacogenomics, we have a high hope that drug treatments can veer away from the "one-dose-fits-all" approach to medication.
