Session 3: Current Accessibility to Epinephrine for Treating Anaphylaxis
This session will include discussions on the available data to assess barriers with obtaining, carrying, and using epinephrine. Panelists will consider the institutional barriers presented in community settings and by differing state immunity laws. They will also explore why patients may decide not to use epinephrine during anaphylaxis despite carrying it. There will also be consideration for challenges in accessing care and the need for a prescription to acquire epinephrine.
