Since 1 October 2010, medical card holders have been required to pay a 50 cent charge for medicines and other prescription items supplied to them by community pharmacists. The charges are subject to a cap of €10 per month for each person or family.
The implementation and impact of the prescription charges will be kept under constant review.
