nd abdominal cramps, involuntary voiding, wheezing, dyspnea due to laryngeal spasm, pruritus, rashes, urticaria or angioedema. epinephrine injection, 0.3 mg and epinephrine injection, 0.15 mg are intended for immediate administration as emergency supportive therapy only and are not a substitute for immediate medical care. epinephrine injection, 0.3 mg and epinephrine injection, 0.15 mg contain epinephrine, are non-selective alpha and beta-adrenergic receptor agonist indicated in the emergency treatment of allergic reactions (type i) including anaphylaxis. ( 1 )

njunction with the administration of epinephrine, the patient should seek immediate medical or hospital care. more than two sequential doses of epinephrine should only be administered under direct medical supervision [ see indications and usage ( 1 ), dosage and administration ( 2 ) and patient counseling information ( 17 ) ]. 5.2 injection-related complications epinephrine injection, 0.3 mg and epinephrine injection, 0.15 mg should only be injected into the anterolateral aspect of the thigh [ see dosage and administration ( 2 ) and patient counseling information ( 17 ) ]. do not inject intravenously large doses or accidental intravenous injection of epinephrine may result in cerebral hemorrhage due to sharp rise in blood pressure. rapidly acting vasodilators can counteract the marked pressor effects of epinephrine if there is such inadvertent administration. do not inject into buttock injection into the buttock may not provide effective treatment of anaphylaxis. advise the patient to go immediately to the nearest emergency room for further treatment of anaphylaxis. additionally, injection into the buttock has been associated with clostridial infections (gas gangrene). cleansing with alcohol does not kill bacterial spores, and therefore, does not lower this risk. do not inject into digits, hands or feet since epinephrine is a strong vasoconstrictor, accidental injection into the digits, hands or feet may result in loss of blood flow to the affected area. advise the patient to go immediately to the nearest emergency room and to inform the healthcare provider in the emergency room of the location of the accidental injection. treatment of such inadvertent administration should consist of vasodilation, in addition to further appropriate treatment of anaphylaxis [ see adverse reactions (6) ]. hold leg firmly during injection lacerations, bent needles, and embedded needles have been reported when epinephrine injection, 0.3 mg and epinephrine injection, 0.15 mg have been injected into the thigh of young children who are uncooperative and kick or move during an injection. to minimize the risk of injection related injury when administering, hold the child’s leg firmly in place and limit movement prior to and during injection. 5.3 serious infections at the injection site rare cases of serious skin and soft tissue infections, including necrotizing fasciitis and myonecrosis caused by clostridia (gas gangrene), have been reported at the injection site following epinephrine injection for anaphylaxis. clostridium spores can be present on the skin and introduced into the deep tissue with subcutaneous or intramuscular injection. while cleansing with alcohol may reduce presence of bacteria on the skin, alcohol cleansing does not kill clostridium spores. to decrease the risk of clostridium infection, do not inject epinephrine injection into the buttock [ see warnings and precautions (5.2) ]. advise patients to seek medical care if they develop signs or symptoms of infection, such as persistent redness, warmth, swelling, or tenderness, at the epinephrine injection site. 5.4 allergic reactions associated with sulfite the presence of a sulfite in this product should not deter administration of the drug for treatment of serious allergic or other emergency situations even if the patient is sulfite-sensitive. epinephrine is the preferred treatment for serious allergic reactions or other emergency situations even though this product contains sodium metabisulfite, a sulfite that may, in other products, cause allergic-type reactions including anaphylactic symptoms or life-threatening or less severe asthmatic episodes in certain susceptible persons. the alternatives to using epinephrine in a life-threatening situation may not be satisfactory. 5.5 disease interactions some patients may be at greater risk for developing adverse reactions after epinephrine administration. despite these concerns, it should be recognized that the presence of these conditions is not a contraindication to epinephrine administration in an acute, life-threatening situation. therefore, patients with these conditions, and/or any other person who might be in a position to administer epinephrine injection, 0.3 mg or epinephrine injection, 0.15 mg to a patient experiencing anaphylaxis should be carefully instructed in regard to the circumstances under which epinephrine should be used. patients with heart disease epinephrine should be administered with caution to patients who have heart disease, including patients with cardiac arrhythmias, coronary artery or organic heart disease, or hypertension . in such patients, or in patients who are on drugs that may sensitize the heart to arrhythmias , epinephrine may precipitate or aggravate angina pectoris as well as produce ventricular arrhythmias [ see drug interactions (7) and adverse reactions (6) ]. other patients and diseases epinephrine should be administered with caution to patients with hyperthyroidism, diabetes, elderly individuals, and pregnant women. patients with parkinson’s disease may notice a temporary worsening of symptoms.

escribed an epinephrine injection, 0.3 mg or epinephrine injection, 0.15 mg and who may be uncooperative and kick or move during an injection to hold the leg firmly in place and limit movement prior to and during an injection [ see warnings and precautions (5.2) ]. each epinephrine injection, 0.3 mg or epinephrine injection, 0.15 mg is a single-dose epinephrine injection for single use. since the doses of epinephrine delivered from epinephrine injection, 0.3 mg or epinephrine injection, 0.15 mg are fixed, consider using other forms of injectable epinephrine if doses lower than 0.15 mg are deemed necessary. with severe persistent anaphylaxis, repeat injections with an additional epinephrine injection, 0.3 mg or epinephrine injection, 0.15 mg may be necessary. more than two sequential doses of epinephrine should only be administered under direct medical supervision [ see warnings and precautions (5.1) ]. the epinephrine solution in the clear window of the epinephrine injection 0.3 mg (auto-injector) or epinephrine injection 0.15 mg (auto-injector) should be inspected visually for particulate matter and discoloration. discarding after use: the epinephrine injection 0.3 mg and epinephrine injection 0.15 mg each contain 1 ml epinephrine solution. approximately 0.7 ml remains in the auto-injector after activation, but is not available for future use, and should be discarded.
