Comment on US FDA approves nasal spray alternative to EpiPen for allergic reactionsparent

Comments

The needle-less part is important.

In my country, injecting a drug via needle is a medical activity only the patient himself, doctor and the nurse instructed by doctor can perform by law.

For EpiPen, the regulation is slightly relaxed so the paramedics, parents/childcare workers/school teachers responsible for the child patient can also use it.

But when the EpiPen is needed, the patients often can't administer himself.

Which country is that?

Japan.
