[QUOTE="Greenhornet_au, post: 311667, member: 8767"] Be aware that your Epi Pen meds can be damaged by heat so I would not recommend you store it in the glove box of your car. The one time you may need it - it may be useless. It is Hormone and needs to be properly stored, would you leave a child in the car glove box on a hot day? The same goes for any medication, check with your 'local licensed drug dealer' (Pharmacist) as to how is the best way to store this stuff for extended trips and hot weather. When you need it, you need it to be fully functional. Also keep tablet form antihistamines with you too, you can take that if you think it is only a mild reaction, AND still use the EpiPen if it is severe or becomes severe. the antihistamine and EpiPen Adrenaline work in different ways so will not conflict - these allergies are not a joking matter and should be taken seriously. [b]It cuts down on time in the field !![/b] We have the same problem with meds for Kato. and the wife is one of those 'LLDD's' (Pharmacist) ;) [/QUOTE]
