'I presume this is free?' Confusion over when women will get long-awaited free HRT from pharmacies
A scheme that would see the State cover the cost of the drug was due to be rolled out in January, but it has yet to be implemented.
Pharmacists said there was “zero consultation” with the sector before the measure was announced as part of Budget 2025.
One pharmacist said the scheme is "a missed opportunity to get equality" in hormonal care for women of all ages.
Meanwhile, the clinical lead of the Rotunda's menopause clinic said supply shortages in some HRT products are currently "a much bigger issue" than cost.
