ARVs never in stock at Dischem Brooklyn

I am currently 35weeks pregnant & HIV positive. I am on the Discovery Keycare Plus plan. 5months ago Discovery HIV Programme consultant recommended certain generic ARV medications that I should get to prevent the virus from passing to my unborn child. My GP gave me a script with the exact medications that my plan pays for & I went to Dischem Brooklyn Pretoria to collect my 6months repeat prescription. First time I got my medications, then 3 out of the 6 times I had to pay R368.40 each time for the non generic medicine because Dischem can not get the generic type from the supplier. This is so frustration because government is issuing these medicines for free but I had to pay out of my own pocket whist on medical aid or risk infection to my unborn child if I don't have money to pay for theses ARVs.
