Aims & Scope

European Journal of Hospital Pharmacy (EJHP) is a peer reviewed, international online journal covering practical and innovative research in hospital pharmacy. EJHP is committed to being the leading journal on all aspects of hospital pharmacy, thereby advancing the science, practice and profession of hospital pharmacy. The journal aims to become a major source for education and inspiration to improve practice and the standard of patient care in hospitals and related institutions worldwide. The scope of the European Journal of Hospital Pharmacy (EJHP) is broad and of interest to pharmacists and pharmaceutical scientists, as well as related disciplines of specific relevance to hospital pharmacy. The journal is of direct relevance to those involved in hospital pharmacy, as well as those involved with academic research, clinical, technical and social pharmacy, pharmaco-epidemiology and pharmaco-economics. The emphasis is on high quality content that augments the knowledge and practice of hospital pharmacists. EJHP is a global journal; readership and authorship from other, non-European countries is encouraged. EJHP receives submissions from over 40 countries, many of which are from authors based outside Europe (including the USA, Asia, the Middle East and Africa). The journal publishes both professional and research content. In all cases the emphasis will be on quality, originality and the contribution of articles relevant to hospital pharmacists and their colleagues. Please note that animal studies and studies on traditional Chinese medicine are not considered to be relevant for the audience.
