🚨 Why Access to Epinephrine Matters 🚨
Anaphylaxis (severe allergic reaction) can strike at any moment — and when it does, fast action can save a life. That’s why having epinephrine on hand matters more than ever, especially for people with known allergies.
✅ Quick Facts:
Epinephrine is the first-line treatment for anaphylaxis — it works fast to reverse swelling and improve breathing.
Delays in getting epinephrine can lead to serious complications or even be fatal.
Common triggers include foods (peanuts, shellfish), insect stings, medications, and more.
📜 Good News for Tennessee Residents
Thanks to Tennessee state law, a licensed pharmacist can now dispense an epinephrine auto-injector (like an EpiPen) to individuals with a documented history of allergic or anaphylactic reactions.
You do not need a separate prescription from your doctor — just come in and talk to your pharmacist.
We can bill it to your insurance, so you’re not stuck paying full retail cost.
