Meglet Jun 2022 6:31pm, 21 Jun 2022 22,709 posts	0 Meglet Once you go over more than one item a month a pre-payment certificate is a no-brainer. It’s about £30 for 3 months, just over the cost of three prescriptions. If I time my three month one right I can pick up four months supplies with it, as it’s three calendar months but prescriptions are every 4 weeks. I’ve had three HRT 3m at a time but I think the latest is only a month due to shortages.
