You might of heard what an epinephrine is or not.

Epinephrine is an effective drug that treats all symptoms of anaphylaxis including the ones that are very severe to you. For instance, your having an anaphylactic shock and the severity ones are chest tightness, wheezing, throat closure or anything that is danger to your health. You can find more of these symptoms in my previous blog entry. It is the only drug known to treat anaphylaxis the treatment can only last for a short period time so, it is important that you seek medical attention right away. How long does the effect last, you might be wondering, about 10-15 minutes, where you should have two epinephrine injectors in case for backup.

There is two doses for children and for everyone. One of the doses are for young children under 33 pounds (15 kilos) which is called junior epipen. Another dose is the regular strength over 66 pounds.

Two Kinds of Epinephrine:

Epinephrine is an auto-injector where you can self-administrate it yourself. There is also another kit
like the epinephrine but its called the Ana-Kit. An Ana-Kit where its a syringe that already has the specified dose in it and a needle where it should be administrated correctly when handling it.

Common Names:
  • Epipen
  • Twinject
Important:
Keep in mind epinephrine only saves you time for you to get medical attention because you need treatment right away and medical help will deal with your situation. Bear in mind once you get an anaphlyactic shock self-administrate if you don't it can lead to a bad outcome which lead to death. Don't Delay Taking Your Epinephrine.
