*NOTE:
Always check with your GP, as this list changes from time to time. (You could have been paying full price for any of these items without realising you could have them on a prescription, thereby reaching the Safety Net sooner.  Once you reach the Safety Net your prescriptions are free.)

Some Pharmacies are charging discounted scripts.  Be aware; if you take the discounted price you will reach the Safety Net much later.
