Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme Statistics

in Drug Information

Have you ever wondered the cost to us (through the government) of various medications. Medicare Australia does have a site where you can check this out. There are some limitations. It only covers the drugs used by people on some form of concession card and those drugs that cost more than the current PBS co-payment for general patients.

You need to enter by item number. To find the item number go to the PBS website and enter your drug name. Overseas readers (particularly the staes) may be amazed at the prices here compared to home. A pdf of the entire Pharmaceutical Benefits schedule can be downloaded here
