    • Inject EpiPen® or EpiPen® Jr intramuscularly or subcutaneously into the anterolateral aspect of the thigh, through clothing if necessary. Instruct caregivers of young children who are prescribed an EpiPen® and who may be uncooperative and kick or move during an injection to hold the leg firmly in place and limit movement prior to and during an injection.
    • Protect from light. Epinephrine is light sensitive and should be stored in the carrier tube provided to protect it from light. Store at 20°C to 25°C; excursions permitted to 15°C to 30°C. Do not refrigerate.
