Catherine Murphy

Ceist:

464. Deputy Catherine Murphy asked the Minister for Health the options that are available to persons to appeal a generic prescription when they are instructed that they have no choice but to take a generic medication via that prescription even when they have clarified there are contraindications to taking the generic medication and that they are happy to pay additional costs (details supplied); and if he will make a statement on the matter.

As this question relates to service matters, I have arranged for the question to be referred to the Health Service Executive (HSE) for direct reply.
