All manuscripts submitted to Research Journal of Drug Abuse will be peer reviewed.

Herbert Publications follow single blinded peer-review process. In this process the author’s names and affiliations will be revealed to the reviewers, while authors are kept blinded from reviewer details.

Each manuscript will be sent to the appropriate Editor who in turn will assign 3 reviewers with the stipulation that the review must be submitted within 2 weeks.

Once the reviews received from at least two reviewers, the Editor will make a decision, regardless of the third reviewer response.
