That would be a vial and a hypodermic needle. I hope you have had training for safely injecting yourself. Epipens are sealed and basically self administer. You need to clean the injection area, store the hypdermic needle, keep the vial cool and aside someplace. I wouldn’t trust my kids life on a $20 deal....

I was misremembering. When quoted by my pharmacist, it was $300 for a two-pack, with my insurance, it was $35 for a two-pack. They are real Epipens. Not a vial and syringe.

Just my faulty memory.

diabetics are trained to inject insulin several times a day. They use a $1 syringe and a vial of insulin they keep in the refigerator.
