Summary: The commenter is an individual advocating for the approval of auto-injector epinephrine devices for both adults and youth. They argue that the current requirement for glass vials poses a significant safety risk during emergency anaphylactic reactions and urge the FAA to move forward with the change.
It is critical to have adult and youth auto injector EpiPen‘s that can be self administered in case of emergency. The current requirement of a glass vile, present substantial risk to the food allergy community. If a doctor or nurse wasn’t on board and a serious anaphylactic reaction occurs, that individual is at serious risk. This is such a small shift to protect many I urge and plea you to move this forward.
