This study aimed to evaluate the impact of the risk minimisation measures issued by the European Medicines Agency in 2014 to restrict the combined use of renin-angiotensin system (RAS) blocking agents in Denmark. Data from the Danish National Prescription Registry covering all medications dispensed during January 2008-December 2018 was used. The outcome was monthly prevalence of patients codispensed RAS blockers. Autoregressive integrated moving average interrupted time series regression was used to evaluate dispensing trends. The prevalence of patients codispensed RAS blockers decreased from 0.01 to 0.0003%. Preintervention trend was declining and further decreased with an additional -0.45 (95% confidence interval -0.66, -0.25) codispensing per million population after the intervention. Overall, the intervention had minimal impact on the combined use of RAS blockers. However, as the combined use of RAS blockers is low, further interventions to restrict the combined use of RAS blockers may not be required in Denmark at this point.

Portal and searchable database of pharmacological information. Information is presented at two levels, the initial view or landing pages for each target family provide expert-curated overviews of the key properties and the available selective ligands and tool compounds. For selected targets, more detailed introductory chapters for each family are available along with curated information on the pharmacological, physiological, structural, genetic and pathophysiogical properties of each target.
