There are certain conditions where you can get free prescriptions anyway. I don't fall into that category.
However, if your wife currently only pays for one prescription, it probably wouldn't be worth having.

If you are only paying for 1 item you could do what my pharmacist suggested and get the prepayment certificate for 1 year and stock up on your item(providing it has a good shelf life) for the year you have the certificate,as you can use it as often as you like. If you got a repeat of the item every 3 weeks you would have enough to last for 5 months after the certificate had run out.
Every little helps
where have I heard that before???

That would depend on your doctor. There is no way my surgery would let me have anything before it is due, plus after 12 prescriptions I have to see the doctor to get the tablets renewed and I'm sure she would want to know why I have requested so many.

My hubbys is only every given one months supply & my parents too, plus they do reviews every 6-12 months.
My Dads view on this is, if you popped your cloggs next month n had a stock pile of meds its technically a waste!

Haha only joking,I know what he is saying and wouldnt suggest anyone willy nilly stockpiles medicines. The way I do it is safe,and I know what I am doing,but clearly wont work for everyone.

It's ok if you can do it, but my doctor wouldn't stand for it!

My Dads 79 this year paul n fit as a fiddle for his age! No worries though - hes a daft old Dad!
I get a regular rant about anything nearly every day n have often heard it before!
But hes not a miserable one, but it does play on his mind that he feels his days are numbered n wonders how his life will end - bless him, but wouldnt you if you were old fit n healthy at 79?!

My dad is 82 and mum 86. They have their health problems but are still going strong.
Just thankful they're still in full control of their faculties.

I pay £10.40 a month and this is accepted because if not My prescriptions come to £35.00 plus a month and n summer this raised to £42.00 a month so £10.40 is a good deal for all.
It's an excellent deal, I'm so glad I have the prepayment.
