  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 list of single ingredient long acting beta agonist (LABA) inhaler preparations at VMP and AMP from the NHS Dictionary of Medicines and Devices.

  3. Methodology

    The codelist was prepared by including all VMPs/AMPs mapped from the BNF codes associated with LABA (see Jupyter notebook for description) that are not bambuterol as it comes as oral tablet form and very low prescribing numbers in England.
