Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) Prescriptions
From 1st April, patients who usually pay for their Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) prescriptions will be able to purchase an annual HRT prepayment certificate (PPC) for the cost of two single prescription charges. This will be valid for 12 months and can be used against any HRT prescription(s) licensed for the treatment of menopause as listed in the Drug Tariff. The list excludes preparations which may be used for the treatment of menopause but are not licensed to do so such as testosterone products.
A patient with an HRT PPC will continue to pay the prescription charge for any other (non-HRT) medicines (unless another exemption reason applies). These are known as “mixed” prescriptions.
