I'm a +68 woman. Despite my request, the doctor gave me a prescription for 1) alfadiol 100% of the payment, and for 2) vaxigrip tetra (vaccine) 50% of the payment. Did she do the right thing? I would be wasting my money if she could have listed both drugs as 100% reimbursed

The 100% clause means that the drug is not reimbursed and you have to pay 100% of the price, but it does not mean 100% reimbursement, i.e. the drug is free.
Alfadiol is not on the list of reimbursable drugs, it is not available at a discount. Its price will be different in each pharmacy.
Vaxigrip Tetra is free of charge for people over 65 years of age, but only if the GP writes an "S" on the prescription. So in addition to the 50% notation, there must also be the letter "S" in the window.
Here you can check if a given medicine is free for a person 65+:
