Wikipedia is a very informative site, stating:" Currently, anaphylaxis leads to 500–1,000 deaths per year (2.4 per million) in the United States, 20 deaths per year in the United Kingdom (0.33 per million), and 15 deaths per year in Australia (0.64 per million)." As you can see, it would be dangerous NOT to have an Epi-Pen if your Doctor tells you to carry one. This video is to take out the danger, by knowing how to use one properly, and SAFELY!

Actually..No. This was a demonstration model used for training by the medical field. Thanks for watching.

Where can I get demo pens? I am a nurse, working in a residential treatment center. A patient had an anaphylactic reaction today, and there were only two of us on staff who knew how to use an Epipen. I would like to do a training with my staff. Thanks for the video!

This part 2 of my story. I heard a voice when I was unconscious I suppose. It's like a dream I only hear his voice saying that don't fight, you're dead already, and giving some foul language it lasted for a minute i think. and then i heard a voice of a girl saying very calmly that it's okay his dead, you don't have to do that. anyway, that my experience. My doctor never told me that there is such a emergency medicine for anaphylaxis shock. thanks to you, i'll try to buy tomorrow. God bless, sir.

Thank you for your kind video. I'm a filipino and I had an anaphylaxis shock last year. It was so severe I lost consciousness because I'm out of oxygen and I never breath for 14 minutes and my wife told me that i turned violet or light blue. I was in the emergency room at the hospital when i lost consciousness. miraculously after they put a hose into my mouth passing my esophagus, they suck all the food that I ate. I shouted and starts to breath again but still I don't know what's happening.
