The Top 300 Drugs of 2020

Note: The data source (MEPS prescribed medicines file) is released annually by the U.S. Government. This data release represents survey data from two years prior. The ClinCalc DrugStats Database sanitizes and standardizes this data, and is typically released within a few months of the MEPS release. There is an inherent delay in collecting the survey data (eg, in the 2018 calendar year), MEPS releasing the data from patients (August 2020), and the ClinCalc DrugStats release (a few months later, classified as the 2021 drug list).
