My GP will only supply 300 at a time but will supply them as often as I like. He said he wouldn't supply more in one go in case he was liable if I sold them. It's a bit of a pain as I live quite a distance away so I have to do it all by post.

Hopefully "electronic repeat dispensing" will be out next year. This should make life easier.
