You could save money on your prescriptions

If you are on a low income, or pay for more than three prescription items in three months, or 11 items in 12 months, you could save money on your prescriptions.

A Prescription Prepayment Certificate covers all NHS prescriptions for a set pre-paid price, or spread over 10 direct debit payments.

People on a low income could be entitled to help with costs or free prescriptions through the low income scheme, depending on your circumstances.

You can check if you’re eligible for free prescriptions at www.nhsbsa.nhs.uk/check or find out more about the Prescription Prepayment Certificates at www.nhsbsa.nhs.uk/ppc.
