The Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical (ATC) classification system and the Defined Daily Dose (DDD) as measuring unit are the standard for international drug utilization monitoring and research. The ATC/DDD system is a tool for comparing data on drug use at international or national levels.

Country notes will indicate when these drugs, Saxenda and Wegowy, came on the market in each country. This affects data for the ATC codes A10, A10B and A10BJ.
