The Drugs Payment Scheme caps the amount an individual, or family, has to pay on approved prescribed medicines, drugs or medical appliances to €80* each month. The Drugs Payment Scheme is not means tested and is available to individuals who are ordinarily resident in Ireland and who hold a PPS number.

For the purpose of this scheme a family is defined as: an adult, their spouse and any children under 18 years. Dependents aged between 18 years and 22 years, who are in full time education, may also be included.
If you are interested in this scheme please talk to any of our staff who can register you for the Drugs Payment Scheme.
