When to use EpiPen® Auto-Injector
Anaphylaxis is a potentially life-threatening allergic reaction and should always be treated as a medical emergency.3
Adrenaline (epinephrine) injected into the outer mid-thigh muscle is the first line of treatment for anaphylaxis. EpiPen® and EpiPen® Jr Auto-Injectors contain adrenaline (epinephrine).1,2,4
Use EpiPen® Auto-Injector immediately if you have signs or symptoms of anaphylaxis, as described by your doctor or pharmacist. Symptoms are potentially life threatening and do vary.1,2,4
