BMC Pharmacology has no Journal Impact Factor — JIF is published only for journals in the Web of Science Core Collection (SCIE, SSCI, AHCI and ESCI) — and Scopus has not published a current CiteScore for it either. Treat any "impact factor" quoted for this journal elsewhere as unofficial.
Who publishes BMC Pharmacology and what is its ISSN?

No — it is not currently in the Web of Science core collections (SCIE, SSCI, AHCI or ESCI).

Scopus coverage history
Scopus indexed BMC Pharmacology for 12 years, between 2001 and 2012. Coverage ended in 2012, 14 years ago, and Scopus now lists the title as inactive.
Is it still publishing? OpenAlex lists 971 works and 10,950 citations for the title. Its papers appear as late as 2015, 3 years after Scopus coverage ended in 2012. That pattern fits a journal Scopus stopped indexing while it kept publishing, but it can also come from a changed ISSN or merged records. Confirm the journal's current status before submitting.
