Last Friday, the government's changes to 60-day dispensing at pharmacies came into effect, meaning that Australians with a broad range of conditions that will require regular medications will pay less for their scripts. It's reassuring to hear that the cheaper medicines changes implemented in January have already saved Australians millions of dollars. How will the changes to dispensing rules save millions of Australians even more on their medicines at a time when the cost of living is continuing to add pressure to household budgets?
