You pay $10 a month or less for a prescription. I think multiple prescriptions are $10 too. Under 16s and over 65s don't pay anything.
Which is typically one type of pill and many conditions require more than one pill. Each prescription is paid seperately and so if you have to take say 4 different pills then you are paying quite a bit. It is far from free which is the assumption many people overseas have.

This shows how full of shit Miles is. Many people are exempted from paying any prescriptions charges at all. My other half does not have to pay because she is an epileptic, diabetics don't have to pay , people on a range of benefits don't have to pay. Miles forgets that now he is an overseas person with no clue whatsoever.
