Thank you for your request dated 1st March 2024.
Public Health Wales does not procure or prescribe these drugs and therefore does not hold this information.
Public Health Wales is the public health service for Wales and as such is an independent NHS Trust. Therefore, do not have access to this information. As an organisation we have no jurisdiction over the activities of Health Boards and other NHS Wales organisations. This means we frequently do not have access to the data that they produce. I have provided contact details for all the Health Boards below, you would need to contact them individually for the information they hold.
