ATC code J01
therapeutic subgroup of the Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical Classification System: Antibacterials for systemic use
ATC code J01 Antibacterials for systemic use is a therapeutic subgroup of the Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical Classification System, a system of alphanumeric codes developed by the World Health Organization (WHO) for the classification of drugs and other medical products. Subgroup J01 is part of the anatomical group J Antiinfectives for systemic use.
Codes for veterinary use (ATCvet codes) can be created by placing the letter Q in front of the human ATC code: for example, QJ01. ATCvet codes without corresponding human ATC codes are cited with the leading Q in the following list.National versions of the ATC classification may include additional codes not present in this list, which follows the WHO version.

J01M Quinolone antibacterials
In ATCvet, this subgroup is named "QJ01M Quinolone and quinoxaline antibacterials".
“ATC code J01” enters the record as therapeutic subgroup of the Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical Classification System: Antibacterials for systemic use. Crown Archives preserves that source wording while asking what code, therapeutic and subgroup can confirm, complicate or overturn.
Why this record matters
“ATC code J01” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, code, therapeutic and subgroup provides the most credible route into that argument.
Datasets, specimens, observations and peer-reviewed methods provide the appropriate test for the technical claims summarized here. The source revision retrieved here is dated Dec 24, 2025. The linked authority identifier is Q434066. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference.
Current terminology should not be projected backward without checking the classification used when the underlying evidence was created. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
How to read it
Check terminology, classification and the date of the cited evidence. Scientific names and technical consensus can change while older records retain historical value.
- Current terminology
- Classification context
- Finding cited technical literature
Primary datasets, specimen catalogues, standards bodies and the most recent peer-reviewed literature.
Three-step research path
