Responded to: 8th September 2016
The number of children (under 18) who have been prescribed anti-depressants in the areas covered by the CCG(s) you administer in the past three complete financial years (i.e. 2013-14, 2014-15 and 2015-16).
I would like this information broken down by single year of age, gender, and type of drug prescribed. I would also like the total number for each year across all ages, genders and drug types.
NHS Stockport CCG does not hold this information. To access this information you would need to contact each Stockport GP Practice individually. Contact details are available on the NHS Choices website: http://www.nhs.uk/Services/Trusts/GPs/DefaultView.aspx?id=89814
