Theme Issues

In 2007, during discussions with the editorial board of Clinical Therapeutics, it was decided that certain important health issues deserve additional visibility. To highlight these concerns, the journal committed to the publication of 2 focus issues annually on topics of special interest to the scientific/medical community. Each focus issue contains all of the usual sections normally found in Clinical Therapeutics.
