This journal changed its publication mode from subscription to open access in 2019.

Therapeutic Advances in Drug Safety delivers the highest quality peer-reviewed open access original research articles, reviews, and scholarly comment on pioneering efforts and innovative studies pertaining to the safe use of drugs in patients. The journal has a strong clinical and pharmacological focus and is aimed at an international audience of clinicians and researchers in drug safety, providing an online forum for rapid dissemination of recent research and perspectives in this area.

The journal is dedicated to publishing clinical research, including qualitative studies. We do not publish preclinical research, including basic laboratory research and animal studies.

Review articles include expert opinion pieces, perspective reviews (including single-drug and drug class reviews), patient perspectives, narrative reviews and therapeutic area reviews. Systematic reviews, meta-analyses, postmarketing and health economic and pharmacoeconomic reviews are also welcomed. The appropriate EQUATOR Network reporting guidelines should be followed (e.g. CONSORT for randomized, controlled trials and PRISMA for systematic reviews/meta-analyses). The journal conforms to the ICMJE requirement that clinical trials are registered in a WHO-approved public trials registry at or before the time of first patient enrolment as a condition of consideration for publication. The trial registry name and URL, and registration number must be included at the end of the abstract.

The journal adheres to a blind review process in which the reviewer's name is routinely withheld from the author unless the reviewer requests a preference for their identity to be revealed. Manuscripts are reviewed by at least two referees.
