Subject: Re: 15.00 for 2 aspirin?

Bwild: That's why in the UK there is a standard charge for prescriptions. One rate. If it's just aspirin/paracetamol... get them over the counter for pennies. In my experience, most pharmacists will tell you if a medicine can be bought over the counter for cheaper.

And everyone takes their cut. Inflated prices mean inflated profit margins.

Shareholders and share prices rule!!
