Generally speaking, the review period for Frontiers in Pharmacology averages 14 weeks, which is indeed quite long. You can wait a little longer, but if you are really worried, it is advisable to send a polite email to inquire.

Review speed: 3.0 | Submission hit rate: 75.0 Experience sharing: I submitted a review article and chose Professor Zhulin as the handling editor, who was particularly friendly. I wrote the review article very carefully. There were 3 reviewers, one rejected the submission, and 2 accepted it. The suggestions provided were very helpful. A very good journal.

Could you please tell me how long it usually takes for the editor to make a decision after both reviewers have endorsed the paper? I'm really in a hurry and need to know if it's going to be accepted for publication. Thank you so much!

Research on traditional Chinese medicine compound formula
May 24, 2020: First submission, rejected by editor after 9 days, editor requested additional analysis of Chinese medicine ingredients and two drug lists (did not see this requirement in the submission guidelines before)
July 18, 2020: Submitted again with the ingredient analysis
July 20, 2020: Resubmitted with requested email correspondence and WeChat communication between authors
July 23, 2020: Editor assigned, checked AI assistant multiple times showing "reviewer were invited"
August 4, 2020: Woke up to see that the editor had been changed back to the one who previously rejected my submission (will a resubmission after rejection always go back to the original editor? Or was I just unlucky?) and saw that it was marked as "ongoing". An hour of anxiety later, I received the rejection email
The reason given was that they no longer accept studies with a dosage greater than 1g/kg per day (for all fellow researchers of traditional Chinese medicine, is this even achievable?)
Initially thought it might have been a random excuse for rejection. However, upon further examination of the rejection email, it seems the main reason was that I used Chinese medicine granules, and the editor, being a foreign editor, may not have been familiar with what Chinese medicine granules look like? This is because the reference standards provided were all for extracts or individual components.
I have already sent an appeal email to the editorial office, but have not received a response yet.
