Current Research

My research interests are in the area of pharmacokinetics and pharmacogenetics which are important in determining the best treatment options and adjustments for patients towards achieving optimal pharmaceutical care. Apart from that, I am also interested in the area of clinical practice involving non-communicable diseases specifically in the management of patients with hypertension as well as type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus. My previous work was on the effects of cytochrome P450 genetic polymorphisms (CYP3A5, CYP2C19 and CYP2D6) on the antihypertensives management of chronic kidney disease patients.

My current research works are on public health awareness on chronic kidney disease, management of kidney disease and diabetes mellitus, dermatological conditions and hypertension management.
