Following the recent press regarding Boots cutting the cost of prescriptions, Care Pharmacy is pleased to announce that we will also be abolishing all mark-ups on prescriptions as of Monday 4th June 2012. All prescriptions will instead have a ”professional services” flat fee of €6.95 instead of the average 33-50% markup found in other pharmacies.
The top ten most expensive prescription drugs will consequently have an average reduction in cost of 25%. As a result of this patients suffering from conditions such as asthma and heart disease could find themselves saving up to €300 a year with this new policy we have adopted’’
