EpiPen (epinephrine auto-injector) is a life-saving medication used for the emergency treatment of severe allergic reactions known as anaphylaxis. Anaphylaxis can result from allergies to food, insect stings, drugs, or other triggers. EpiPen acts quickly to constrict blood vessels, relax smooth muscles in the lungs to improve breathing, stimulate the heartbeat, and work to reverse hives and swelling around the face and lips. It is available in two strengths: EpiPen for individuals weighing 30kg (approximately 66 lbs) or more and EpiPen Jr for those weighing between 15kg (33 lbs) and 30kg (66 lbs).
