From the databases of outpatient prescription drugs, which were processed in the R software environment, we researched the patterns of outpatient prescription of drugs to children and adolescents up to eighteen years of age in Slovenia in the period 2015 - 2019. We evaluated the structure of outpatient prescriptions according to the number of issued prescriptions, the type of issued medicines, gender and by individual statistical regions of Slovenia with the aim of obtaining a complete insight into the consumption of medicines in a certain age group.
