Big news for allergy emergency care!

The UK now has its first needle-free adrenaline nasal spray — EURneffy® — available on prescription for people weighing 30kg + who are at risk of anaphylaxis.

What this means:
1. Easier administration in emergencies.
2. Option for those who struggle with auto-injectors (AAIs).
3. Important: this doesn’t replace AAIs for everyone—people who’ve needed multiple doses or had severe reactions still need to talk with their specialist.
