Pharmaceutical drug classification
ATC code G Genito-urinary system and sex hormones is a section 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.

Codes for
veterinary use (
ATCvet codes ) can be created by placing the letter Q in front of the human ATC code: for example, QG .
[5] 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.
