GnRH Agonist statistics

Simon Tegg made this Official Information request to Pharmaceutical Management Agency

The request was successful.

From: Simon Tegg

Dear Pharmac,

In response to a previous OIA request dated 28th August 2023 Pharmac supplied statistics on the number of patients (PREVALENCE) dispensed of GnRH agonists broken down by
- YEAR: 2006 - 2022, CALENDAR year.
- AGE: 0-17 by year, supplemented by the 12-17 age category.
- SEX: M, F

Thankyou for your timely response. I make the same request however this time updated to be the years: 2006 - 2023.

IN ADDITION I request INCIDENCE data broken down by the same year, age, and sex categories. To clarify by "incidence" I mean the number of patients who start on GnRH agonist treatment the age and sex categories in a calendar year who were not dispensed GnRH agonist the previous calendar year.

Yours faithfully,

Simon Tegg
