New to the site and just prescribed femoston

Was charged double ? Am appalled to the point of writing to my local MP to argue this , they should be free , thoughts ?

For some reason we are all charged separately for the oestrogen and progesterone with HRT- even when it comes as a single packet. All very strange. I think HRT is not deemed an essential treatment unlike most prescription drugs so the nhs cashes in on are need to get some quality of life!!!
Good luck with the Femoston - it's a good one, as the progesterone is kinder, so it suits many women really well. DG x

Hi I used firstly evorel sequi and now Femseven Sequi patches, both patches come in one box and I am only charged 1 prescription charge (it is printed on my prescription “one charge”).  I think it's a postcode lottery type thing because I get 24 vagifem on one prescription but my sister in Suffolk is only allowed 8!!! Costing her roughly £1 each! (She is now going to get that annual presc. Thing)

Hi Nina1

 

It's appalling isn't it?!

Well I hope it works for you anyway...
