help with prescription costs

If you are paying for regular prescriptions, you might save money by applying for an NHS Prescription Pre-Payment Certificate.

 

These last for 3 or 12 months, and once purchased cover the cost of all your prescriptions during that period.

 

A 3-month certificate will save you money if you usually need 4 or more prescribed items over a 3 months period.
