Its the same as people that are self employed. I have people that earn twice as much as me but pay half the tax. Who can blame them? It gives their family a better life. Its the system that is broken not the people. | |

Or if like me you pay the annual prescription cost for meds it makes sense. 104 quid for the year and covers everything. | |

quote: I agree. I should be ended immediately. As a minimum, it should be judged against earnings or full price. Convinced it would stop many prescriptions and even many needless visits to the doctor. I'm pretty sure Westminster wouldn't allow English tax to be spent like this in Scotland however, if it is, even more reason to end it promptly. | |

Lets not forget all the free stuff they give away at pharmacies when people turn up with their benefits papers. | |

Absolutely outrageous. I was aware of this previously. I understand it costs the NHS approximately £10 to prescribe a box of paracetamol to patient. It's 16p in Tesco FFS. | |

NHS spends £87m on paracetamol... at 20 TIMES the high street cost: Doctors wrote 22.9m prescriptions last year at an average cost of £3.83 each. The NHS spent over £87million handing out paracetamol last year - with the average prescription costing 20 times the price of a packet in the supermarket. | |

I'd like a pill that stops me from getting fat/diabeties/cancer if I abuse my body? Seems fair! | |

I can't seem to comprehend why they're funding this above treatments for dementia, cancers and other illnesses. If you ask me I think it'll be seen as a 'morning after pill' to some and we could see an increase in people contracting the disease as a result which in turn will cost the NHS a fortune. | |

The High Court has told the NHS in England it can fund a drug that can prevent HIV - after health bosses argued it was not their responsibility |
