This is HUGE for kids. Nasal spray as a delivery method is a big step up from needles, the shelf life is much longer, it's less susceptible to high/low temperatures, and if the promotional pricing is accurate, it's cheaper than EpiPens and Auvi-Q (which talks you through the injection procedure).
I wouldn't be surprised, though, if insurers continue to push generic epinephine injectors ($15-$30) merely from a cost perspective.
- sweca 2y agoHmm... Canada had something like Auvi-Q called Allerject but it was recalled due to mechanical malfunctions. https://www.cbc.ca/news/health/epipen-shortage-canada-1.3296678 https://www.cbc.ca/news/health/epipen-shortage-canada-1.3296...
