Postgraduate pharmacy residencies equip trainees with advanced clinical skills for patient care and prepare them for specialized roles in their careers. Teaching is a core responsibility for most pharmacists, yet postgraduate residency training often lacks standardization in teaching and learning experiences. The American Society of Health-System Pharmacists (ASHP) provides residency accreditation standards; however, the activities related to teaching objectives may lack consistency across institutions and programs. The 2024 American College of Clinical Pharmacy (ACCP) Publications Committee updated a previous publication on standardized teaching experiences for all residencies and programs offering a teaching certificate or other teaching experiences. The current paper highlights information and activities for residency programs to promote diverse teaching experiences, including the introduction of a tier system. Postgraduate pharmacy residencies should adopt these guidelines to offer consistent teaching experiences with personalization for trainees. Residents should also inquire about the teaching components of programs to choose the best fit for their career goals. There should be a balance between standardization and flexibility in teaching experiences to prepare residents for diverse roles in clinical practice or academia.

Pharmacogenomic (PGx) considerations are increasingly influencing health system formularies, prompting Pharmacy and Therapeutics (P&T) committees to integrate genetic insights into their decision-making processes. This can be the case in several clinical scenarios, including (1) Prioritizing the use of lower-cost drugs, where PGx testing is applied to guide the use of lower-cost medications when appropriate, (2) Rescuing medications that are effective in the majority of individuals but were removed from the formulary because of harm in a subset of individuals with a specific phenotype, (3) Improving medication safety by utilizing PGx testing/results to guide initiation of reduced drug doses or use of alternative therapy in patients with at-risk genotypes, and (4) Restricting use of high-cost drugs to individuals most likely to respond based on genotype. The primary objective of this PRN opinion piece is to describe how PGx impacts formulary management, including the challenges and opportunities that arise from precision medicine approaches to prescribing.
