How this is counted

Sums the approvals field over drug records with status approved whose companies field lists the company. A product with two companies (a partnership or an acquisition) counts in full for both. The context column counts those approved products. Supportive care medicines (antiemetics, growth factors, epoetins, bone-modifying agents, antidotes, opioids for cancer pain, immunoglobulin; drug records flagged supportive) are not products or treatments here and are left out.

Coverage. 418 of 443 approved products name at least one company (94%). Rows with a value of zero are not listed. Nothing is weighted, imputed or averaged; the ordering is by the number shown, then by name.
