Upon acceptance of a manuscript, all authors are required to sign the Copyright Transfer Agreement, transferring copyright to the Editorial Board of the Chinese Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology. The journal thereby retains the right to use the manuscript globally, including but not limited to the rights of reproduction, compilation, distribution, translation, and information network dissemination.

All articles published since Volume 1 (1986) have been archived in both print and electronic formats. Due to technical limitations, articles in 1986–1995 have yet to be uploaded to the journal’s website. To ensure data security, all information is backed up at the editorial office. Additional materials submitted by authors, such as supplementary data and tables, are archived by the editorial office. Full-text articles are also available for reading and downloading on databases such as CNKI, Wanfang, VIP, and Chaoxing.
