Rejected petition Stop people age 16+ with asthma having to pay for inhalers.
Rejected on
I want to start a petition for people with asthma, whereby if they have not grown out of the condition by the age of 16, they don't have to pay for inhalers that treat their condition. These are vital medicines, and usually more than 1 is needed, which becomes too costly for some.
