Indications

EpiPen Auto-Injector is a medical device used for the emergency treatment of life-threatening allergic reactions (anaphylaxis) caused by allergens, exercise, and other triggers.

EpiPen Auto-Injector is an automatic injection device containing adrenaline for allergic emergencies and is intended for immediate administration in patients who are determined to be at increased risk for anaphylaxis, including individuals with a history of anaphylactic reactions.

Use and Dosage

Read the Patient Information Leaflet and Instructions for Use provided by your pharmacist before you need to use epinephrine and each time you get a refill. If you have any questions, ask your doctor or pharmacist.

Keep this product near you at all times. When you receive it and before you need to use it, check that the product comes out of its carrying case easily. If it does not, consult your pharmacist.

The solution for this product should be clear. From time to time, check this product visually for particles or discoloration. If it has turned cloudy or pink/brown, do not use the product. Discard and replace it.

Different brands of this medication have different directions for preparing and using this medication. Learn ahead of time how to properly inject this medication so you will be ready if you need to use it. Also, make sure a family member, caregiver, or other responsible person knows where you keep this medication and how to use it in case you cannot inject the medication yourself. The dosage is based on your medical condition, weight, and response to treatment.

Inject this medication into the thigh as directed by your doctor and the manufacturer. This medication can be injected through clothing if needed. This medication acts quickly but does not last long. After injecting epinephrine, get medical help right away. Tell the healthcare professional that you have given yourself an injection of epinephrine. You may need another dose of epinephrine if your symptoms do not get better, or if they return after one dose.

Avoid injecting this medication into the hands, feet, buttocks, or areas of your body other than the thighs. If this accidentally happens, get medical help right away. For infants and young children, be sure to hold their legs firmly in place before and during the injection to prevent injury. Discard the injector properly after use.

Cautions

Before using this medication, tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are allergic to it or if you have any other allergies. This product may contain inactive ingredients, which can cause allergic reactions or other problems. Talk to your pharmacist for more details.

This product may contain sulphites. However, if you have a sulphite allergy, you should still use this medication during an emergency. Since epinephrine can save your life, using it is more important than avoiding any sulphite-related problems.

Before using this medication, tell your doctor or pharmacist your medical history, especially of: heart problems (such as angina, irregular heartbeat), high blood pressure, thyroid disease, and diabetes.

This drug may make you dizzy. Alcohol or marijuana (cannabis) can make you dizzier. Do not drive, use machinery, or do anything that needs alertness until you can do it safely. Limit alcoholic beverages. Talk to your doctor if you are using marijuana (cannabis).

Older adults may be more sensitive to the side effects of this drug, especially a rapid rise in blood pressure.

FAQ

What happens if I miss a dose?

Since epinephrine is used when needed, it does not have a daily dosing schedule.

What happens if I overdose?

Seek emergency medical attention.

Overdose symptoms may include numbness or weakness, severe headache, blurred vision, pounding in your neck or ears, sweating, chills, chest pain, fast or slow heartbeats, severe shortness of breath, or cough with foamy mucus.

Can you bring an EpiPen on a plane?

You can bring your EpiPen onto a plane – they are a common medical device, and they should not cause any fuss when you are going through airport security. You can carry them in your handbag, laptop bag, or other carry-on luggage. It is a very good idea to take your EpiPen with you on the plane because the small confines of an aircraft increase your odds of being exposed to a trigger allergen while you are flying and having an anaphylactic reaction.
