Abstract

The classification of drugs included in the database of this book was performed according to the ATC/DDD system (Table 2.6.1). This system was developed by modifying and extending the European Pharmaceutical Market Research Association (EPhMRA) classification system by Norwegian researchers and was called the Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical (ATC) classification. In 1982, the WHO Collaborating Centre for Drug Statistics Methodology was established in Oslo and is funded by the Norwegian government. In 1996, WHO started to develop use of the ATC/DDD system as an international standard for drug utilization studies.
