  They're free in Wales anyway!

  
  
  No they are not, nothing is free. People who pay taxes pay for them for Welsh people and for Scottish people (including Welsh and Scottish tax payers of course)

  People with other life threatening illnesses get free prescriptions but not ashtmatics..... why?

  
  
  
  Get yourself registered as a Drug Addict they get free scripts and a lot more besides. The medical profession would not be able to prove you are not an addict and a bonus is you will also get priority for social housing extra benefits plus your very own social worker and told your very naughty when you go to court for stealing and burglary

  Ridiculous people with asthma pay for their prescription , when other chronic conditions are exempt.
  
  Also makes me glad I live in Scotland

  
  
  True it is ridiculous but it is the world we live in, my brown one sets me back £8 a month

  Yes I agree, inhalors should be free. Asthma is a chronic illness.

  What a fab idea, it costs me almost £6 in petrol to get to my doctors & back, now I can pick one up when I am at work :) Oh & the time my son forgot it when we went on holiday, almost a day wasted trying to get hold of one :| Well done Asda

  They can never be free as they cost money to produce?? They do have to be paid for somehow..

  Really good idea - however depending on how many medications you're on it's still worth considering a pre-pay certificate. My husband has one and it's around £10 a month so the cost is spread over the year but atleast you can budget a bit easier. Maybe other pharmacies will start following suit - our local Asda doesn't have a pharmacy but there are ones in the Tescos and Sainsburys.

  Mine are free cause i'm in n.ireland but this is fab, i had awful trouble when my receptionist ordered me the wrong inhaler twice!!! i had no red one for a week, but i do agree these should be free for everyone. Also it took alot of work to get my dr to give me 2 just incase he said they tell him not to in order to save money and he agree's a spare one is a good idea but they don't.

  the blue inhaler is not a substitute for the preventer (steroid inhaler). asthma patients who are on a steroid inhaler as well as blue reliever should also be taking regularly to treat the inflammation of asthma and not replacing it with the blue reliver one.

  Great Deal but I only pay £3.75 for my prescription so not really a huge saving... On and we don't have an Asda!
  How are they allowed to just sell these without prescription?

  At least two of the people above say they have problems getting to their quacks/chemists because of work commitments; so they are paying taxes.

  Yep, ever since I started to regularly take my preventitive inhaler (seretide) I rarely use my blue one now

  i presume a parmacist would ask them regarding history etc... am sure it would need to be controlled or could be harmful to some people if not given out correctly.

  My advice is to get a three-month prepayment certificate (about twenty-five quid) and then get a prescription every other week for anything you might need over the next year or so. These inhalers will be okay for two to three years and such stockpiling will save you money, especially if you have a related condition like hayfever or psoriasis. But it's brilliant that Asda can now do this.

  Surely doctors will notice you are getting too many prescriptions in such a short space of time?
