The journal emphasizes the importance of pharmacovigilance, reporting adverse drug reactions, and monitoring drug safety in clinical practice, particularly in vulnerable populations. - Pharmacogenetics and Personalization of Therapy:
Studies exploring genetic factors influencing drug metabolism and response, aiming to tailor pharmacotherapy to individual patient profiles for better outcomes. - Innovative Drug Development and Therapeutic Strategies:
Research on new therapeutic agents, drug repurposing, and innovative approaches to enhance treatment efficacy and minimize side effects. - Epidemiology and Public Health:
This scope includes studies assessing drug utilization patterns, the impact of drug policies on public health, and the epidemiological trends of drug-related issues.
Trending and Emerging
- Personalized Medicine and Pharmacogenomics:
There is a marked increase in research focusing on tailoring pharmacotherapy based on genetic profiles, emphasizing the need for personalized approaches to enhance drug efficacy and minimize adverse effects. - Real-World Evidence and Pragmatic Trials:
Growing interest in studies that evaluate drug effectiveness and safety in real-world settings, moving beyond controlled clinical trials to understand how drugs perform in diverse patient populations. - Immunotherapy and Biologics:
Research into immunotherapy, particularly the use of monoclonal antibodies and checkpoint inhibitors, is expanding, reflecting an increasing recognition of their potential in treating various conditions, including cancer. - Digital Health and Pharmacovigilance Technologies:
Emerging technologies for monitoring drug safety and efficacy, including mobile health applications and artificial intelligence, are gaining traction as tools for enhancing pharmacovigilance. - Neuropharmacology and Mental Health:
There is a rising focus on the pharmacological management of mental health disorders, exploring novel therapeutic agents and their mechanisms of action in neurological contexts.
Declining or Waning
- Traditional Herbal Medicine:
Research on herbal medicines and their pharmacological effects has seen a decline, possibly due to the increasing focus on synthetic drugs and biologics that provide more consistent results in clinical settings. - Basic Toxicology Studies:
While toxicology remains a crucial area, the focus on basic toxicological mechanisms has waned in favor of more applied studies that directly address clinical implications and drug safety. - Animal Models of Drug Action:
Although animal studies are still important, there has been a shift towards human-based research and clinical trials, with less emphasis on preclinical animal models compared to previous years. - Drug Formulation Studies:
Research focused solely on the formulation aspects of drug development has decreased, as the field moves towards integrated approaches that combine formulation with clinical efficacy and safety assessments.
