    Nothing to discuss as such yet MSE Dan, but just by reading that article I think I'll probably save more than the £77 over a year.

    Just read the cheaper prescriptions article. Its got alot of useful information in it. However, at no time does it state that the person should discuss their medicines with either the doctor or pharmacist, especially if they have any concerns or are confused about buying drugs off prescrption.

    I may be preaching to the converted, but is everyone aware that the Tesco equivalent of Immodium, under the name of Loperamide is £3 for 12 Tablets as opposed to over £6 for the brand name.
    Treat everyday as your last one on earth! and one day you will be right.
