Although the term "personalized medicine" can be defined in many good ways, it's most recent uses is in "personalized genetic information" derived from the individual to generate "possibly predictive" information about that individuals future manifestation of disease, future risk of disease manifestation, future severity of disease , future response of treatment of disease based on the individual's genetic information.

Personalized medicine may be looked at from two viewpoints:
1. The first view is that when we deal with persons who complains from any illness or has been diagnosed with any specific disease, we need to look at that person as a human being within a social network and not just a disease entity within his/her body. We care for a person with a disease not only for a disease within the person.
2. The second view is related to the health information related to a person. These information must be person-centered and not visit centered. In addition, record linkage must be assured to form a total continuing profile on each person.
Chinese medicine is a personalized medicine that depends on each patient's personal constitution and disease, symptoms, lifestyle, diet, exercises, jobs, ages, daily life stress, etc. to do balance and instructions for the patient. It's all individual, personalized care.
It is also called precision medicine, it is a medical model that separates people into different groups—with medical decisions, practices, interventions and/or products being tailored to the individual patient based on their predicted response or risk of disease.
it is the synonym of precision medicine which means separates people into different groups—with medical decisions, practices, interventions and/or products being tailored to the individual patient based on their predicted response or risk of disease.
Personalized medicine also referred to as precision medicine or individualized medicine is a form of medicine that uses information about a person’s genes, proteins, and environment to prevent, diagnose, and treat disease. It involves the use of two tools, diagnostic and therapeutic. The diagnostic tool is used to stratify the disease. It may inform us about the patient’s characteristic pharmacogenetics which may lead us to use specific medicine when or even before the suspected disease is confirmed.
