Not mundane or pointless, but until we have a Medical Questions area, this should work. **The maker of the Auvi-Q epinepherine auto-injector used for emergency treatment of anaphylaxis has recalled ALL of their product due to device failures.**

If you have any Auvi-Q, contact your doctor now for a prescription for Epi-Pen, Adrenaclick, or similar epinepherine injector. Information on returning the Auvi-Q devices and a reimbursement program is at their website: [https://www.auvi-q.com/](https://www.auvi-q.com/)
