Following representations made by Community Pharmacy England on behalf of community pharmacy owners, the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) has re-determined the February 2024 concessionary prices for the following medicines:

Drug Pack size Price concession for February 2024

The improved prices will apply to prescriptions submitted for payment for the dispensing month of February 2024.
