Property of an antibiotic

Use these functions to return a specific property of an antibiotic from the antibiotics data set, based on their ATC code. Get such a code with as.atc.

atc_property(x, property = "official")

atc_official(x, language = NULL)

atc_name(x, language = NULL)

atc_trivial_nl(x)

atc_certe(x)

atc_umcg(x)

atc_tradenames(x)

Arguments

x	a (vector of a) valid atc code or any text that can be coerced to a valid atc with as.atc
property	one of the column names of one of the antibiotics data set, like "atc" and "official"
language	language of the returned text, defaults to English ("en") and can be set with getOption("AMR_locale"). Either one of "en" (English) or "nl" (Dutch).

Value

A vector of values. In case of atc_tradenames, if x is of length one, a vector will be returned. Otherwise a list, with x as names.
