Objectives: One of the scientometrics techniques and methods is the quantitative study of different sciences and drawing the scientific structure in different fields of science. The aim of this research is to Mapping the structure scientific of pharmaceutical sciences in the top 15 countries in the world during the covid-19 pandemic using Web Of ScienceMethods: The research was cross-sectional descriptive and was carried out using scientometric techniques. The research community included documents produced by 15 countries with the most scientific productions in the field of pharmaceutical sciences in 2021, whose number was 12,646 records in the science citation index. The drawing of the map of scientific structure is done by scientometrics software and is based on descriptive statistics.Results: The most scientific production in the studied area belonged to Wang Y. The most articles in the field of pharmaceutical sciences were published in the journal FRONTIERS IN PHARMACOLOGY in 2021, and the country of Iran ranked 10th in scientific production among the 15 most productive countries in the field of pharmaceutical sciences. The clusters of the scientific structure of the field of pharmaceutical sciences in the present study included 6 clusters, the keywords of Covid-19 and vaccine were placed in the largest cluster.Conclusion: The keywords of covid-19 and vaccine were among the keywords of the largest cluster of the present study and drug studies on animals were in the second cluster. These two clusters show the speed and importance of pharmaceutical studies in the field of vaccine development and fighting against the Covid-19 pandemic. Also, keywords such as behavior and habits show the importance of how people deal with this pandemic
