INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PHARMACEUTICAL AND CLINICAL RESEARCH is a monthly (from January 2022 onwards) published peer reviewed journal. It is to serve the interests of the research-oriented and professional section in the fields of medical, biomedical studies and pharmaceutical sciences. The Journal publishes original research work either as a Full Original Research Paper, Case Study or as a Short Communication. Review Articles on a current topic in the said fields are also considered for publication by the Journal. Anatomy, Physiology, Anesthesia, Biochemistry, Molecular Biology, Cell biology, Genetics, Hematology, Pathology, Immunology, Microbiology, Virology, Parasitology, Surgery, Dental Sciences, Sports Physiology, Histopathology, Toxicology and all major disciplines of Biomedical Sciences, Pharmacokinetics, Molecular Drug Design, Phytochemistry, Toxicology, Biomedical Analysis, Clinical Research, Pharmacy Practice, Clinical and Hospital Pharmacy, Cell Biology, Genomics and Proteomics, Pharmacogenomics, Bioinformatics and Biotechnology, Agriculture, Herbal Medicine, Orthopaedics, Community Medicine, Pharmacology, General Medicine, ENT, Ophthalmology, Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Pediatric, forensic Medicine, psychiatry, TB and chest, Skin and VD, Radiodiagnosis, Oncology, Surgery, Urology, Plastic surgery. and all major disciplines of Medical and Biomedical Studies.

First, to serve scientists through prompt publication of significant advances in the specified branch of Medical and Pharmaceutical sciences, and to provide a forum for the reporting and discussion of news and issues concerning science. Second, to ensure that the results of Medical and Pharmaceutical sciences are rapidly disseminated to the public throughout the world, in a fashion that conveys their significance for knowledge, culture and daily life.

The over-riding criteria for publication are originality, high scientific quality and interest to a multidisciplinary audience. Papers not sufficiently substantiated by experimental detail will not be published. Any technical queries will be referred back to the author, although the Editors reserve the right to make alterations in the text without altering the technical content. Manuscripts submitted under multiple authorship are reviewed on the assumption that all listed authors concur with the submission and that a copy of the final manuscript has been approved by all authors and tacitly or explicitly by the responsible authorities in the laboratories where the work was carried out. If accepted, the manuscript shall not be published elsewhere in the same form, in either the same or another language, without the consent of the Editors. Authors must state in a covering letter when submitting papers for publication the novelty embodied in their work or in the approach taken in their research.

IJPCR insists on ethical practices in both human and animal experimentation. Evidence for approval by a local Ethics Committee (for both human as well as animal studies) must be supplied by the authors on demand. Animal experimental procedures should be as humane as possible and the details of anaesthetics and analgesics used should be clearly stated. The ethical standards of experiments must be in accordance with the guidelines provided by the CPCSEA (animal) and ICMR (human). The journal will not consider any paper which is ethically unacceptable. A statement on ethics committee permission and ethical practices must be included in all research articles under the ‘Materials and Methods’ section.

Authors must be careful when they reproduce text, tables or illustrations from other sources. Plagiarism will be viewed seriously. All accepted papers are subject to editorial changes.
