`meps_drugs_for_condition`

Pack: meps · Endpoint: https://gateway.pipeworx.io/meps/mcp

Which prescription drugs Americans actually take for a given medical condition, with a national estimate of how many people take each one. Covers the whole US population — every payer, every age, commercial and uninsured included, not just Medicare or Medicaid. Ask with a plain condition name like “depression”, “high cholesterol”, “type 2 diabetes” or “asthma”. Returns drugs ranked by estimated people treated, each with the survey sample behind it.

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
`condition`	string	yes	Condition in plain words (“depression”, “high blood pressure”), or a CCSR category code like MBD002.
`year`	number	no	Survey year. Defaults to the most recent loaded.
`min_sample`	number	no	Minimum survey respondents behind a row, default ${DEFAULT_MIN_PERSONS}. Lower it to see the long tail, knowing those estimates are weak.
`limit`	number	no	Max drugs, default 20, max 100.
