HLA-DRB1 is a gene. This site has 48 published variants inside it and 119 near it, each from a published genetic study, joining it to 30 condition pages.

What prescribing experts say about HLA-DRB1 (2)

CPIC, the international group that writes gene-based prescribing guidelines, rates how strong the evidence is for each gene and medicine, from A (strong enough to change the prescription) to D (weak or conflicting). Every rating is shown, the weak ones included, so you can see where the evidence stops.

US drug labels that name HLA-DRB1 (1)

The FDA keeps a list of medicine labels that mention a gene. These are the ones that name HLA-DRB1. Where this site has a page on the medicine, the name links to it; otherwise it opens the label on DailyMed. A label naming a gene does not always mean a test or a dose change: for many it is one line about how the body clears the drug.
