Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal focuses on therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) and pharmacokinetics (PK) to optimize drug dosing and improve patient outcomes. It covers the development and validation of bioanalytical methods for drug quantification, the evaluation of PK models in various patient populations, and the assessment of drug exposure in relation to clinical response and safety. Studies also explore the impact of factors like age, body composition, genetic polymorphisms, and drug administration routes on drug concentrations and efficacy. The journal also addresses the application of TDM in specific therapeutic areas such as transplantation, oncology, and psychiatric disorders, as well as the use of novel technologies like microsampling for TDM.
