"Given I have a yearly blood test why does the prescription only supply eight weeks?

Because you are sick and in need, & they know they can get away with gouging you for the extra cash."

Because you are sick and in need, & they know you might need a drug that costs £1000 a dose which you probably cannot afford, so they charge you £8.40 whatever the cost of the drug. It also has the effect that the drugs budget goes further.
