Dr Michael Fitzpatrick, from the committee, said: "The cost of the medicines seems to be a real problem, for number of reasons."
"The £8 million figure is just based on price per pill. It's not the total cost per year of the drugs."
"You would expect if it was a reasonable price per year to do the job, that would mean a fair return for the taxpayer in terms of money that's spent."

The committee also criticised government for "not using a very wide canada drug stores online range of medicines" in the £7.4 billion NHS budget.
