title: ATC code R05
text: # ATC code R05
  
  ATC code R05 Cough and cold preparations is a therapeutic subgroup of the Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical Classification System, a system of alphanumeric codes developed by the World Health Organization (WHO) for the classification of drugs and other medical products. Subgroup R05 is part of the anatomical group R Respiratory system.
  
  Codes for veterinary use (ATCvet codes) can be created by placing the letter Q in front of the human ATC code: for example, QR05. ATCvet codes without corresponding human ATC codes are cited with the leading Q in the following list. National issues of the ATC classification may include additional codes not present in this list, which follows the WHO version.
