  ABSTRACT: Genomics has been forecasted to revolutionise human health by improving medical treatment through a better understanding of the molecular mechanisms of human diseases. Despite great successes of the last decade's genome-wide association studies (GWAS), the results have been translated to genomic medicine to a limited extent. One route to get closer to improved medical treatment could be by understanding the genetics of medication use. Current medication profiles from 335,744 individuals from the UK Biobank were obtained, and a GWAS was conducted to identify common genetic variants associated with current medication use. In total, 59 independent loci were identified for medication use, and approximately 18% of the total variation was attributable to common genetic variation. The
