In studies with humans, reference should be made to compliance with the guidelines of the Declaration of Helsinki, and in animal studies, the approval of an ethical committee for animal experimentation will be recorded.

f) Results: presentation of the results of the work, which may be supported by figures or tables. g) Discussion: the results obtained and the bibliographic background will be integrated and interpreted so that conclusions can be reached.

h) Conclusions: List in which the conclusions derived from the work are summarized in a summarized way i) Acknowledgments: if deemed appropriate j) Bibliography: Bibliographic references will be presented according to the order of appearance in the text with the corresponding correlative numbering included in square brackets [], according to the "Uniformity requirements for manuscripts presented for publication in biomedical journals" prepared by the International Editors Committee of Medical Journals (Med Clin (Barc) 1997; 109: 756-63). Also available at: ICMJE. All authors will be listed if they are six or less; if there are seven or more, list the first six and add the expression "et al" after a comma. The names of the journals should be abbreviated according to the style used in the Index Medicus / Medline: «List of Journals Indexed» which is included every year in the January issue of the Index Medicus, also available at: National Library of Medicine. Here are two sample formats for articles and book chapters: Tung KH, Angus JA, Wright CE. Contrasting cardiovascular properties of the µ-opioid agonists morphine and methadone in the rat. Eur J Pharmacol 2015; 762: 372-81. Weinstein L, Swartz MN. Pathologic properties of invading microorganisms. In: Sodeman WA Jr, Sodeman WA, (editors). Pathologic physiology: mechanisms of disease. Philadelphia: Saunders, 1974; p. 457-72. Any other type of publication must be referenced according to the criteria of the ICMJE (Uniform Requirement for Manuscripts).

k) Tables: They will be presented at the end of the text, after the bibliography, on pages separated by a page break, clearly indicating their numbering (in Roman numerals), correlative according to their appearance in the text. The table footer will detail the meaning of the abbreviations that appear in it, as well as the calls, indicated correlatively with a letter in superscript (eg a, b).

l) Feet of figures: Figures will be numbered consecutively in Arabic numerals according to their appearance in the text. The figure captions will be included in the article on a page immediately after the tables, never forming part of the same figure. The reviews should have a structure similar to that of the articles, except in the introduction, material and methods, results and discussion sections, which will not be considered.

Figures The images will be provided in separate files. For (digitized) photographs the preferred format is TIFF, with a resolution of 300 dpi for an image size of 8.5 cm wide (and equivalent inverse proportions, that is, 150 dpi for an image width of 17 cm, etc. .). Regardless of the program with which they have been prepared, the figures (especially graphics) should preferably be sent in TIFF format. The letters, numbers and symbols that appear in the figures must be clear and uniform, and of sufficient size so that the reduction of the figure does not lead to its illegibility. Figures will be numbered consecutively in Arabic numerals according to their appearance in the text. If the author proposes a figure obtained from another publication, he must have the corresponding permission and accompany it.

Article Processing Charges (APC):

Average Article prorcessing time (APT) is 55 days

Fast Editorial Execution and Review Process (FEE-Review Process):

Farmacologia y Toxicologia is participating in the Fast Editorial Execution and Review Process (FEE-Review Process) with an additional prepayment of $99 apart from the regular article processing fee. Fast Editorial Execution and Review Process is a special service for the article that enables it to get a faster response in the pre-review stage from the handling editor as well as a review from the reviewer. An author can get a faster response of pre-review maximum in 3 days since submission, and a review process by the reviewer maximum in 5 days, followed by revision/publication in 2 days. If the article gets notified for revision by the handling editor, then it will take another 5 days for external review by the previous reviewer or alternative reviewer.

Acceptance of manuscripts is driven entirely by handling editorial team considerations and independent peer-review, ensuring the highest standards are maintained no matter the route to regular peer-reviewed publication or a fast editorial review process. The handling editor and the article contributor are responsible for adhering to scientific standards. The article FEE-Review process of $99 will not be refunded even if the article is rejected or withdrawn for publication.

The corresponding author or institution/organization is responsible for making the manuscript FEE-Review Process payment. The additional FEE-Review Process payment covers the fast review processing and quick editorial decisions, and regular article publication covers the preparation in various formats for online publication, securing full-text inclusion in a number of permanent archives like HTML, XML, and PDF, and feeding to different indexing agencies.
