i suffer from these quite regualy and noticed that the more upright the pen is the better it works. so putting the thigh so its resting on the ground helps.

this video is partilly wrong. do not ever give benedryll while having an allergic reaction because that juss makes u look better but really inside your lungs, ur getting worse. you can drop on the floor dead becasue of taking benedryll while having a allergic reaction. trust me i no.

This is wrong. Antihistamines DO help. I'm a peanut allergy sufferer and antihistamines are certainly my first response. they have helped me on numerous occasions, especially if you have other less severe allergies and don't want to have to administer the epipen at the first sign of a reaction. If you know it's serious you should use both. When I was hospitalized for a reaction I was immediately put on a benedryll solution drip. If you suffer from reactions don't be afraid of using it.

Allergic Reactions can be very Serious. I am Allergic to Latex, I was a Pharmacy Tech. I wrote a book - Latex is not my Friend on You Tube. This book contains my story, Kids, Adults, etc. People that have very Serious Reactions in this book. Get it, it could save Lives.

Yep. It's designed to go through several layers of clothing and into the muscle. She's using the Epi Jr., which is designed for kids. The adult EpiPen is a bit longer. Scary, huh!
