Thats right and an injection of atropine is not benign..granted if it is not intravenous it is less potent.

Popping yourself with an auto injector would really hurt. Aren't the atroping injectors meant for deep muscle injection like the thigh? If I remember correctly the original auto injector kit for atropine was three injections which were supposed to be self administered at an interval after exposure to nerve agents. Then the military started questioning how willing a servicemember would be to give shots two and three after feeling how painful shot one was. They then changed it to one shot.
