Our commitment to affordability. Local Choice pharmacies are committed to cost-effective and affordable pricing on medicine as well as other products, including vitamins, sports supplements and beauty products. View our promotions page to see which products are special. Local Choice pharmacies are registered as preferred suppliers for most medical aid schemes. Therefore, prescriptions are dispensed and paid for at the rate of the medical aid scheme. The pharmacies are following this as stipulated by the scheme.

Most medical aid schemes have a preferred medicine list (formulary), which is a list of medication that is covered by your scheme only. To avoid co-payments and levies, patients are advised to familiarize themselves with their medical aid schemes formulary list and price rules. Ask your Local Choice pharmacist for advice on the best cost-effective options for you according to your medical aid scheme.
