EPI PENRating: (votes: 0) A) Medical advice is outside of the terms of service,B) I really hope no one is waiting on this answer...C) This knowledge is public domain and may be accessed by reviewing indications for Epi-Pens: It is not exactly the same mechanism as allergies, and though it may be precipitated by some of the same iG pathways, it's not always. Giving epi to a person without a true anaphylactic reaction can cause harm... If they have asthma, there are better ways to treat it. Comment:
Quote from seydcan we use epi pen for asthma attack since its like the same with severe allergy that shuts the airway.. thanks
Comment:
EpiPen MUST NOT be used for treating anything but anaphylaxis (Epi is my companion for the last 34 years, so we really got to know each other).
Comment:
OP, why are you asking?
Comment:
I would only use it for asthma if the RX on the label indicated that it be used for that particular patient in that way.
Comment:
I think that would not be appropriate... better stick to what it's for...
