Re: free perscriptions
No need to have any doubts, glenmoray. All diabetics who are controlling their diabetes with medication are entitled to a medical exemption card for free prescriptions for all medication (for all conditions and not just diabetes) and should complete the appropriate form which is counter-signed by a doctor and sent to Newcastle for processing. On receipt of the card, the appropriate box on the back of each prescription is crossed and the prescriptions are free.
Hope this helps
