Aims & Scope
Drug Topics publishes only print or online content that is not commercial or promotional in nature and that has not been published elsewhere. In the interest of transparency, Drug Topics will, as necessary, ask authors and sources to provide disclosures or conflict-of-interest statements, which will be published as appropriate to further the cause of information service to the pharmacy community. There are several places in our magazine where your article may be used. One example is as a regular news story, such as coverage of a clinical meeting. Freelancers who are covering a meeting can contact the Editor first to see if we have any interest in obtaining coverage of the event.
