[QUOTE="rubold, post: 772450, member: 138086"] There were certificates before 2002 that should have been renewed every 5 years, but whether reminders were sent is another matter. As I have said in previos posts I was diagnosed in 1972 and until this thread started I had never known about the existence of such certificates. At my original diagnosis my doctor and consultant explained which box to tick on the back of the prescription, there was no application form offered to apply for a certificate and it was explained to me as a blanket exemption for diabetes drug prescriptions, so no individual certificate was required. I still maintain that any older diabetics being fined should ask their pharmacist why certificates were never requested when drugs were dispensed. [/QUOTE]
