NHSBSA dispensing figures cover England only and count dispensed items, not patients or prescriptions. They are lagged by several months, revised retrospectively and unvalidated by NHSBSA, and their units are not standardised because these products are not on the NHSBSA drug database. One product can appear under many spellings, potency notations and pack sizes.
