Clarification request(s) and response
Alexander Chisholm: 17:51 Mar 15, 2006: treatment manual ... - was one of the options I thought of, but searches of google didn't give me anything that seemed all that convincing. But then again I was hoping to find a widely recognised term and that may not exist.
Anne Sotgiu: 07:09 Mar 16, 2006: Sorry, hit the return key too quickly. James is right, and there is a British Formulary - see http://www.bnf.org/bnf/ -

Provincial formulary
Explanation:
These are basically lists of drugs which can be prescribed, but I have no idea if there is an "official" English translation. the UK equivalent would be the "British National Formulary", for example.

Provincial Treatment Manual


Explanation:
I don't know that there is an approved "EU-speak" translation for this term, but "treatment manual" is widely used in English to refer to a similar category of document. You may want to retain the Italian term and translate in parantheses.

Something like "Approved Drug/Treatment List" may convey the meaning here better, but the "prontuario", if I understand it correctly, is something more than that....
