I have recently bought the same ventolin inhaler in two different pharmacies on the same repeat prescription. One charged me €8.08 and the other charged me €10.21. (One for my handbag and one for the bedroom).
On the [blue HSE] prescription claim form, the more expensive one has "Drug Refund Scheme" in the Scheme Type box at the top compared to "Private Scripts" on the other one.
Does anybody know what the difference is? I have neither a medical card nor do I pay enough monthly to get anything back on any scheme.
Should I be asking the pharmacist who charged the higher amount for the "Private Prescription" scheme or is that his call?
