Oh, we get the epinephrine from the local pharmacy. I got the idea for the workaround from the internet.

As for the rest, trust me, we are well aware.

People can die because of overinflated drug prices, people, khm, I'm sorry, sacks of crap like her should be trialed for atempted manslaughter or simply murder.

Internet is a dangerous place to order drugs, see if you can get FDA certified and/or check with the FDA before purchase.

I'm glad you and your family found a " work around " to the over inflated pricing. Hopefully other people and families and parents will be able to do the same or Mylan can be made to offer the Epipen cheaper.

I agree although it's not likely to happen.

The maker of EpiPen has agreed to pay the government $465 million after overcharging for the medicine

Default Now you know...

Who is actually running our government/s and it for damned sure isn't the people!

Our latest crop of elected cork sackers here in PA. have taken it upon themselves to stamp out tobacco use by slapping on some exorbitant presale taxes and they're still charging the 6% sales tax on top of it!
I guess the Tobacco settlement money ran out too quickly..

The governor of Maine thinks we should have an authoritarian (fascist) president in the White House.

Why do we keep electing these morons who take campaign contributions from these big corporations and then screw all the little folk afterward?

I don't know about you guys but, I'm getting to the point of taking up arms against the "goody two shoes" and the criminally elected.

The feds were lobbied into forcing big tobacco to create a fire safe cigarette and all it did was make a non-safe cigarette for smoking by adding extra little bands of paper in the tubes. The extra paper is glued on with the same glue used to affix backing to carpet which makes the cigarette go out, unless you're drawing on it constantly. All because some alcoholic dropped his smoke into a waste basket after he passed out and it killed his entire family.
The "goody two shoes" blamed the cigarette.

Every time the government gets involved in anything, they SCREW it up !!!

Would you prefer corporations get involved? That's how we got in to this mess with inflated drug prices in the first place.

A corporation's first second and last priority is to make a continuing profit. To expect them to do or be concerned with anything else is unrealistic.

Given the choice between two bad choices, of corporations or government, I would prefer an inefficient government over a greedy corporation any day.
