Something is very wrong here. A Reuters article claims that there is no Epipen shortage in the US - my pharmacy tells me there is. I was sent almost an hour away to pick them up.
Makes me wonder if Mylan's greed ($600 for 2 pens now!) had anything to do with it.
If you or your child needs them time your refill with this in mind!

I have heard from friends that they are also having trouble finding pens. I hope you find some.

I feel for you. My boy gets them free here in England. What's your view on using out of date ones? We keep ours in case of dire emergency.

@AmiSue Yes, we're advised to call 999 if we use them, in date or not. Different system over there though isn't it, everything costs.

Good grief I remember when they were just $130 out of pocket! Found that out inadvertently frying them out of temperature margins- which are pretty narrow!
Big Pharma are criminals!!!!

Can you get them through the internet? Canada? Mexico? Trump just nominated/appointed Pharma Guy from Lily head of HHS. Greedy bastards.
