New cost of a prescription: £9.90

A RISE in the cost of a single prescription to nearly £10 has sparked fury about an assault on the most vulnerable.

A prescription in England will increase from £9.65 to £9.90 on May 1. A prepayment certificate, for those who don't get free medicine, is up from £111.60 to £114.50 annually.

An annual supply of HRT introduced last year to cut costs, goes up from £19.30 to £19.80.

Prescriptions are free in Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland under devolved governments.
