An Indispensable Resource of Medicinal Products Information

An Indispensable Resource To Run Your Pharmacy Efficiently

The National Health Products Catalogue (NHPC) is a comprehensive information service that represents medicines, devices, and other health products used nationally, including licenced and unlicensed medicinal products available in Ireland.

Catalogues

Catalogues are designed to save you time accessing information, which means their reliability is essential. An electronic medicinal product catalogue is an electronic dictionary of medications available for prescribing and dispensing. The key aim of this catalogue is to provide a consistent approach to the identification and naming of medicines prescribed and dispensed. With a dedicated team and resources to ensure the accuracy and maintenance of the information, this catalogue is one you can trust.
