The International Journal of Drug Policy is a bimonthly peer-reviewed medical journal covering drug policy with respect to both illegal and legal drugs. It was established in 1987 as the Mersey Drugs Journal, and obtained its current name in 1989 in response to the global interest in the Mersey Drugs Training and Information Centre, after which the journal was originally named.[1] The journal's editors-in-chief are Tim Rhodes and Gerry Stimson (London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine). According to the Journal Citation Reports, the journal has a 2014 impact factor of 3.191.[2]
