NSA covers major market channels through the following reports:
Philippine Pharmaceutical Index (PPI). A quantitative monitoring of medicine sales incorporating actual data from distributors, direct manufacturers, and retail pharmacies and nationally representative sample of pharmacy outlets. The PPI provides a macro view of drugstore sales at a national to regional level.
