Scope of the Journal
Archives of Clinical Pharmacology and Therapeutics (ACPT) is an international,
peer-reviewed, open-access journal committed to advancing research and clinical knowledge in
pharmacology, pharmacotherapeutics, and drug development. The journal publishes cutting-edge
findings on the safe, effective, and ethical use of medications across diverse patient populations
and healthcare systems.
ACPT covers a broad range of topics related to drug action, clinical trials, pharmacogenomics,
precision therapeutics, and medication safety. Its mission is to bridge laboratory science and
patient care by disseminating impactful, translational research and expert perspectives to
clinicians, pharmacists, regulatory bodies, and pharmaceutical scientists worldwide.
