@RolloTreadway The prepaid certificate is indeed excellent! I can't remember how I learnt about it, it may have been mentioned by the pharmacist or the GP.

@brunogirin No doctor has ever mentioned it to me, despite prescribing me all these meds. I only know about it because I happened to know someone who used one years ago.

@brunogirin @RolloTreadway i dunno if i'd call it excellent - it kind of sucks that it's necessary at all, given that Scotland has somehow found the wherewithal to pay all their citizens' prescription charges. but it does indeed save money for anyone who needs regular prescriptions - especially for asthma, which despite being an intermittently life-threatening condition is somehow not eligible for free prescriptions in itself.
