Product information for Twinject 0.15mg Epinephrine Auto-Injector Pediatric
One out of every three anaphalactic reactions requires a second dose of epinepherine making Twinject a critical part of the wilderness/remote area medical kit
This double unit-dose device allows you to carry two injections of live-saving epinephrine in one device. This decreases weight and simplifies the administration of epinephrine to anaphylaxis patients.
The Twinject® provides a significant cost savings at about the same cost as a single Epi-Pen®, as well as typically shiping with a 14 month shelf life.
