ABSTRACT
Epinephrine is a lifesaving medication to treat systemic allergic reactions including anaphylaxis. Epinephrine autoinjectors (EAIs) are expensive, not available everywhere in the world, and shortages can limit their access. Epinephrine prefilled syringes and epinephrine kits are lower-cost alternatives to EAIs. Advantages, disadvantages, and costs of available products are discussed and the socioeconomic factors impacting access to EAIs described. EAIs designed for infants also are discussed.
