Methodology

The following SQL code was used to build the codelist natively in dmd to ensure products without a corresponding BNF code were also included.

SELECT DISTINCT dmd_type, dmd_id, dmd_name, bnf_code FROM `chris.union_amp_vmp` WHERE (vtm = 'Aciclovir' AND ( ( form IN ('Oral tablet', 'Dispersible tablet') AND strength_num IN (200, 400, 800) ) ) ) OR (vtm = 'Valaciclovir' AND ( ( formroute IN ('tablet.oral') AND strength_num IN (500) ) ) )

Codelists are developed by a broad community of users for individual study purposes, which may or may not meet the needs of other studies. They should not be thought of as universal definitions of a particular condition.

We don't offer any guarantees about what they do or don't identify. Users should carefully check that any codelist meets their needs, and seek clinical input where appropriate.

* dm+d codelists can be downloaded with codes mapped to changed VMPs included - this is the default for an OpenSAFELY project. See the documentation on keeping codelists up to date for more details.
