Description
Indications
Epinephrine injection is combined with emergency medical care to address severe allergic reactions triggered by insect bites or stings, foods, medications, latex, and various other sources. It is also employed in treating life-threatening low blood pressure associated with septic shock in hospitalized adults. Epinephrine belongs to a group of medications known as alpha- and beta-adrenergic agonists, or sympathomimetic agents. Its mechanism involves relaxing the airway muscles while constricting blood vessels.
Uses and Dosage
Epinephrine injection is available in two forms: as a prefilled automatic injection device and in vials for subcutaneous or intramuscular injection. It is primarily used to address life-threatening allergic reactions. Typically, it is administered at the first indication of such a reaction. In cases of life-threatening low blood pressure due to septic shock, medical professionals usually administer it intravenously.
Your doctor or pharmacist can demonstrate how to use the prefilled automatic injection device, and training devices are available for practice.
Administer epinephrine injection promptly upon suspecting a severe allergic reaction. Familiarize yourself with the signs of such a reaction, and ensure you understand when to administer the injection.
You should carry or have access to at least two automatic injection devices at all times, as one dose may not be adequate. Regularly check the expiration date and inspect the solution for discoloration or particles.
Most devices contain a single dose of epinephrine. If symptoms persist or recur, a second dose may be necessary as directed by your doctor. Medical professionals should handle administration beyond two injections per allergic episode.
While epinephrine injection is crucial for managing severe allergic reactions, it does not replace the need for emergency medical care. Seek immediate medical attention after administering epinephrine and rest until help arrives.
When administering epinephrine, inject it into the middle of the outer thigh. In emergencies, injection through clothing is acceptable. For children who may move during injection, secure their leg and limit movement. Avoid injecting into other body parts or veins, and if accidental injection occurs, seek emergency medical assistance.
After administration, some solution may remain in the device, which is normal. Dispose of the used device properly and inquire with medical professionals about safe disposal methods.
