You must have a full consultation at least annually with your accredited pharmacist to discuss your medical history, and the appropriateness of supply and for combined oral contraceptive users a blood pressure check will be needed.
A consultation fee of $30 will apply and the cost of the medication will vary depending on the oral contraceptive pill required after consultation if deemed appropriate.
