ATC code M05

ATC codes
M Musculo-skeletal system
M01 Anti-inflammatory and antirheumatic products
M02 Topical products for joint and muscular pain
M03 Muscle relaxants
M04 Antigout preparations
M05 Drugs for treatment of bone diseases
M09 Other drugs for disorders of the musculo-skeletal system

ATC code M05 Drugs for treatment of bone diseases is a therapeutic subgroup of the Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical Classification System, a system of alphanumeric codes developed by the WHO for the classification of drugs and other medical products. Subgroup M05 is part of the anatomical group M Musculo-skeletal system.[1]

Codes for veterinary use (ATCvet codes) can be created by placing the letter Q in front of the human ATC code: for example, QM05.[2]

National issues of the ATC classification may include additional codes not present in this list, which follows the WHO version.
