Actually, funny you bring up a $50 price point. The only other autoinjector still on the US market is Adrenaclick, which is ~$140 for a 2 pack.
I genuinely have no idea why people consider there to be no viable alternative to the EpiPen - the only guesses I might have are that the third autoinjector (Auvi-Q) being pulled off the market being more "newsworthy", that insurances don't cover it (but $140 is a pre-insurance cash price!), and third but probably most important: people aren't getting prescriptions for something they're not used to using. I have never gotten a prescription for anything but "EpiPen" specifically.
