Does anyone here use oiltum in the bath for themselves or child, and have to pay for the prescription?

DH does, though these days he tends to just buy it over the counter since we are lucky enough that we can afford to.

We buy it over the counter even though it's prescribed for DS (so we could get it free). I'm not sure what difference it makes to his skin though.

It's quite expensive isn't it? My mum used to have it but all of a sudden couldn't use it anymore (she's a walking phenomenon! ).
Today will be the 9th time I have phoned her GP s asking for it to be removed from her repeat script.
Last year I must have dropped 12 bottles in at the chemists. Still it persists!

If anyone is struggling and would like a few bottles, DM me, I'm happy to pay the postage. Hopefully the surgery will have voided it off from today!☺
