  2. Definition

    This codelist was taken from OpenCodelists, created by OpenSAFELY. We recommend viewing this Phenotype on the OpenCodelist website to view the most recent version.

    A codelist to identify prescriptions of remdesivir.

    User requirements

    I need a codelist to return all recorded prescriptions of remdesivir in primary care records. This will be used to plot the recorded prescribing in primary care of all COVID-19 therapeutics.

    Sensitivity versus specificity

    Volumes expected to be low, and drugs specific, so sensitivity to be prioritised
