EpiPens Don't Always Work - And it might be your fault

Date: April 26th, 2018

"Marisa, get in here quickly! He's having an allergic reaction to shellfish!" my aunt cried out to me one summer Saturday back in August. You see, my aunt is a pediatrician, and I'm a certified PA in a pediatric urgent care, and we can immediately identify when there is a medical emergency. As I ran into her kitchen and saw an adult clutching his throat, covered in hives and having gasping breaths from an allergic reaction, I knew he needed epinephrine STAT.

We immediately called 911, and his friend ran to his car to retrieve the two EpiPens he had sitting in his glove compartment. After giving the first epinephrine and there was no response, we gave the second one, only to realize they were both expired and were likely inactive from being in a hot car during summer months.

FDA Targets JUUL E-Cigs in Crackdown on Underage Sales

Date: April 24th, 2018

WASHINGTON -- The FDA announced a crackdown on sales of the electronic cigarette JUUL to minors, acknowledging that the brand has become "wildly popular" with underage users who are able to buy the e-cigarette at brick-and-mortar retailers and on the internet.

Last week, FDA Commissioner Scott Gottlieb, MD, vowed to take steps to address the explosive growth of JUUL use among youth, in response to a plea by health groups and lawmakers.

Speaking at a Congressional budget hearing, Gottlieb said the agency would be "stepping into this fight in a vigorous way in the coming weeks" to prevent a new generation of kids and teens from becoming addicted to nicotine.

On Tuesday, the FDA outlined the steps it has taken and will take to keep JUUL and other e-cigarette brands from being sold to minors.
