\item{atc_code}{a character or character vector with ATC code(s) of antibiotic(s)}

\item{property}{property of an ATC code. Valid values are \code{"ATC"}, \code{"Name"}, \code{"DDD"}, \code{"U"} (\code{"unit"}), \code{"Adm.R"}, \code{"Note"} and \code{groups}. For this last option, all hierarchical groups of an ATC code will be returned, see Examples.}

The \link[AMR:lifecycle]{lifecycle} of this function is \strong{questioning}. We are no longer convinced that this function is the optimal approach (but we do not know yet what a better approach would be), or whether this function should be in our \code{AMR} package at all.
