It is a terrible reflection on our society that this product is allowed to be sold by the private sector.

My husband has to have 4 perscriptions per month and that means he pays over twenty eight pounds out of his megare benefits, disgraceful when you consider he contributed for over 40 years.
Thats a disgrace
Is he not eligible for a medical exemption certificate?
You could get them for free then.
I also thought if you were on benefits you got them for free?
I would like to know how they can justify such a huge charge for something that is essential for so many people.
