Can I use CYP2D7 as a substitute for CYP2D6 in a medication report?

CYP2D7 is a related locus classified as a segregating pseudogene, with many alleles predicted to be nonfunctional. Its identity and function differ from CYP2D6, so the names cannot be used interchangeably.

Common Gene Name: cytochrome P450 family 2 subfamily D member 7 (gene/pseudogene)
NCBI Gene ID: 1564
Chromosome: 22
