Dear Sophie,

Thank you for your e-mail and apologizes for the delay in answering.

In Estonia the consumption of ATC N01 group (anesthetics) is collected at the national level (wholesale data).

You can find a more detailed information on our website: https://ravimiamet.ee/en/statistics/statistics-medicines

On the same page there is a data table (named “DDD 2023 ENG.pdf”) on active substance level, covering also N01 units: https://ravimiamet.ee/sites/default/files/documents/2024-04/DDD%202023%20ENG.pdf

Hello,

Pleased to e-meet you. I am from OECD Health working and am quite interested in the database of medicine statistics provided here: PxWeb - Select table. We are currently in the process of looking at anesthetic gas volumes consumed in countries and wanted to inquire about whether if consumption of ATC N01 group (anesthetics) is collected at the national level? And if so, at what unit is this data collected?

Many thanks,

Sophie
