Methodology

BNF section 5.1 systemic antibacterial items in the monthly English Prescribing Dataset, divided by the same month's official registered-patient total for practices whose postcode resolves to each borough. Exact items, quantity, cost, registered patients and practice count remain visible. Registered practice location is not necessarily patient residence, and prescribing is not infection prevalence or prescribing quality on its own.
