# ATCvet code (veterinary medicines) (`atcvet_code`)

> **Draft.** Draft records have not been reviewed yet and may be incomplete or wrong; do not treat them as authoritative for legal or compliance decisions.

Code of the Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical classification for veterinary medicinal products (ATCvet), maintained by the WHO Collaborating Centre for Drug Statistics Methodology. It is the letter Q followed by a code built like a human ATC code; ATCvet adds groups of its own, such as QI for immunologicals and QP for antiparasitic products.
