EpiPen Jr. A real Lifesaver
By Bobbi Mckenney onIf you or any of your family have or know of anyone who has seer alleric reactions to foods, bee stings or anything else, this is a MUST HAVE!My son is deathly alleric to eggs.He can not eat anything with high amounts of eggs in it including mayo.He had an near death experiencedue to him being allergic to eggs and we had no idea.When I took him to the Dr. for a follow up visit from his trip to the ER the doctor told me that he was going to give me a prescription for the EpiPen Jr.He told me that it is a pre-measured amount of Epinephren that is in an auto injector syringe and needed to be adminsitered by injecting into his thigh if this ever happened again.Each "pen" is good for one year from the time that you get them and it is really important that you keep an close eye on it.This is not a permante cure for the allergic reaction but, it does by you enough time to get to the ER andget the proper help.I strongly encourage those of you how have sever allergys to look into this if oyu don't have it already.They have them for adults and for children, and are a life saving medication to keep on hand at all times.
Very important product to have with you at all times if you have a severe allergy. I've always heard about using them for bee sting allergies, but did not realize it could be used for food allergies like eggs and nuts, too.
This sure is something that those with allergies must keep with them. Knew of a man playing golf who had his epi pen in the car. He was stung by a bee and went into arrest before he could get to the car. Ended up brain dead.
I hope we never have need of this in our house! my mother in law has one.
My dad is allergic to bees and I always have one of these in my purse just in case when I'm with him. Life-threatening allergies are scary to have to live with!
My mom carries her epiPen with her. She is very allergic to bees and other things.
We don't go anywhere without at least one Epipen Jr for my son and one for me. He has severe allergies to peanuts and eggs and I'm very allergies to stings. They are definitely lifesavers!!
