Aims and Scope of Acta Pharmaceutica Sciencia
Gülden Zehra OMURTAG

Acta Pharmaceutica Sciencia is a continuation of the former “Eczacılık Bülteni” which was first published in 1953 by Prof. Dr. Kasım Cemal GÜVEN’s editorship. At that time, “Eczacılık Bülteni” hosted scientific papers from the School of Medicine-Pharmacy at Istanbul University, Turkey. In 1984, the name of the journal was changed to “Acta Pharmaceutica Turcica” and it became a journal for national and international manuscripts, in all fields of pharmaceutical sciences in both English and Turkish. (1984-1995, edited by Prof. Dr. Kasım Cemal GÜVEN, 1995-2001, edited by Prof. Dr. Erden GÜLER, 2002-2011, edited by Prof. Dr. Kasım Cemal GÜVEN) Since 2006, the journal has been published only in English with the name, “Acta Pharmaceutica Sciencia” which represents internationally accepted highlevel scientific standards. The journal has been published quarterly except for an interval from 2002 to 2009 in which its issues were released at intervals of four months. The publication was also temporarily discontinued at the end of 2011 but since 2016, Acta Pharmaceutica Sciencia has continued publication with the reestablished Editorial Board and also with the support of you as precious scientists.
