My local chemist has gone off to be fed at her majesties pleasure for fiddling prescriptions. A simple straightforward fraud:
Customer turns up with prescription for a liquid drug.
Chemist says "Not in stock at the moment but I have the same drug in pill form, will that do". Customer says " I suppose so".
Kerching! Liquid medicine is nearly always more expensive than the pill type.
Claim for liquid, supply pills, and repeat, again and again and again.
Hopefully the business is still trading or you have a nearby alternative in the valleys?
Business is still trading so customers are safeguarded. Bit of an eyebrow raiser though.
I have heard rumours of a cheaper generic being dispensed when a GP had prescribed a specific brand.
Sadly the UK is full of people willing to fiddle. When I commuted if inspectors got on a train they always seemed to catch someone. My work took me to Switzerland and I used trains to get around the country. Ticket inspectors came through but never caught anyone!
Ah yes. Lauterbrunnnen, Wengen and Kleine Scheidigger. Up onto the Jungfrau to admire a superb view of the clouds. A very pleasant view from Piz Gloria on another day with a walk down through Murren on the way back. Great train service, incredible tunnels.
On weekends the stations were full of soldiers with guns. Every man under 65 is in the army or the air force, so they have the largest army in Europe. No beggars, no knife crime. Very different.
Piz Gloria - that takes me back - coach from Interlaken, up valley side on cable car to Murren , walk through village then cable car up to the top of Schilthorn. Went there 10 years after the Bond file On Her Majesty's Secret Services was filmed there. Amazing bit of construction
Having walked along the valley and visited the underground water fall that runs down from the Eiger, we got to the lift at the end , paid my dues and got some very impressive 4 frank coins . "Heavy" I said. The liftman leaned forward conspiratorially and smiled "Solid gold" he said. "At your prices", I thought, "not far off".
When we were walking back we talked to a young waiter who remembered the filming well . "Fantastic swaps" he said
Seems from Feb, it might be legal to substitute (albeit under certain conditions)

As yes, Brexit, the gift that keeps on giving. It is one thing to swap a Branded pill for a cheaper (inferior?) generic. A lot of older people can digest liquid medicine but struggle to swallow and absorb pills. Interesting reference shows that money grubbing profit is once again the driving force
I used to live in Switzerland. Very law abiding. Don’t cross the road without the green man on the pedestrian crossing.
I hope you got your prescriptions filled before they carted them off.
Amiodarone for AFib, is it safe?
