What is Viatris Pharmaceuticals EpiPen Jr. 2-Pak?

Viatris Pharmaceuticals EpiPen Jr. 2-Pak tv commercials

Viatris Pharmaceuticals is the marketer and distributor of the EpiPen Jr. 2-Pak, which is a widely recognized and commonly used device for the emergency treatment of severe allergic reactions. The EpiPen Jr. 2-Pak contains two auto-injectors that are designed to deliver a single dose of epinephrine, a life-saving medication, to individuals experiencing an anaphylactic reaction.

EpiPen Jr. 2-Pak: Epinephrine Auto-Injectors for Children

The EpiPen Jr. 2-Pak is specifically intended for children who weigh between 33 and 66 pounds (15 to 30 kilograms), or approximately 1 to 6 years of age. It offers a lower dose of epinephrine compared to the standard EpiPen, which is intended for adults or older children.

Purpose and Usage

Epinephrine is a hormone that can quickly reverse the symptoms of a severe allergic reaction, such as difficulty breathing, swelling, and low blood pressure. The EpiPen Jr. 2-Pak is designed to be easy to use in emergency situations, even by individuals who are not medical professionals.

To administer the medication, the protective cap is removed, and the orange tip of the EpiPen Jr. is firmly pressed against the outer thigh. The device is held in place for a few seconds to ensure the proper delivery of epinephrine. After the injection, the EpiPen Jr. 2-Pak should be safely discarded and medical help should be sought immediately.

Viatris and EpiPen4Schools

Viatris Inc., the marketer and distributor of the EpiPen Jr. 2-Pak, also offers the EpiPen4Schools program. This program is designed to provide free EpiPen auto-injectors to U.S. schools, helping to ensure that potentially life-saving treatment is readily available to children who may experience severe allergic reactions while at school.

Through the EpiPen4Schools program, schools can obtain two EpiPen Jr. 2-PAK cartons or one 2-Pack of each kind , along with reference materials and training devices. This initiative aims to increase awareness of anaphylaxis and promote preparedness in school settings.

Accessibility and Affordability

It is worth noting that the cost of EpiPen auto-injectors has been a topic of concern for many individuals and families who rely on them. In response to this issue, V
