Rejected petition Suspend Prescription Charges for Asthma Inhalers during the Coronavirus Crisis.

For the Government to immediate suspend prescription charges for all asthma inhalers.

More details

Asthma sufferers are at significant increased risk from Coronavirus (COVID-19).

Many asthma sufferers usually require two inhalers, a Preventer and a Reliever to treat their asthma. The monthly cost of these prescriptions can be prohibitive for many asthma sufferers.

During this unprecedented crisis, the Government should immediately suspend all prescription charges for asthma inhalers.

This will enable all asthma sufferers to have access to the medication they need during this crisis.
