Indian Drugs is the scientific publication of the Indian Drug Manufacturers' Association (IDMA). The Indian Drugs Journal started its journey towards Nation building in 1963 with the aim to provide an excellent opportunity to the Indian Pharmaceutical research community to publish their original research manuscripts without charging any fees.

Indian Drugs is published monthly and is respected for its peer-reviewed scientific and technical papers. We receive about 450 to 500 papers in a year, a number of which are from international institutions of repute, of which only about 30 to 35% are accepted for publication. The decision as to whether or not a paper is suitable for publication, though ultimately decided by the Editors, depends on a team of expert referees who perform the demanding and often unacknowledged task of sharing their expert opinions as to the merit of the research presented. This team of dedicated referees scrutinize the Research Papers and all of them work on an honorary basis and only their love and commitment for the subject matter and the growth of R&D in the pharmaceutical sciences drives them on. We sincerely acknowledge their contribution and dedicated support for the growth of 'Indian Drugs'. The publication has a circulation of 2200 copies and is distributed to all IDMA members as a members' privilege. It is also available by subscription to members of the industry, university libraries and government departments. We also provide soft copies of Indian Drugs to Institutes/Colleges and to our reviewers in India.
