Reviewers for Pharma Research must decline an invitation, or tell the editor, if they:

• work at the same institution as any author, or have collaborated with them in the past three years
• have a close personal relationship or a known rivalry with an author
• hold shares in, consult for, or receive funding from a company whose product or competitor is studied
• are preparing or have submitted work that directly competes with the manuscript
• for any other reason feel unable to give an objective opinion

If you are unsure, ask the editor at Info@s-epub.in. A declared interest does not always rule you out, but the editor needs to know so the decision is fair.
