  Although I know and object to the extent of the waste in the NHS this is a slight misrepresntation of the facts , Gluten free products have been avaliable for many years via prescription for those with coeliac disease , with the rise in Health food shops and the greater range of products avaliable on the " every day " market . A central decision has been made to remove the ability for these to be prescribed , e ECK PCT have just acted on a central directive . The difference in the cost and avaliability has driven the review of products avaliable and thier removal from the prescription tarrif. The whole of the prescription charge sysytem is currently under review and hopefully will lead to reduced costs , The other thing that will need to be kept in mind is that as income reduces for any buisness ie the supplier , then the costs of other products may have to rise to ensure that they remain profitable
