Emerade adrenaline auto-injectors available again

Emerade

EmeradeIn 2020, Emerade adrenaline auto-injectors we recalled due to an error in one component which cause some devices to fail to activate.

Bausch & Lomb, who are the manufacturers of Emerade adrenaline auto-injectors, have now announced that the 300 and 500 microgram dose auto-injectors are available again in the UK following corrections made to the device.

The Emerade 150 microgram dose will still be unavailable at this time.

It is important to remember that different brands of adrenaline auto-injectors have different usage instructions and therefore training specific to the brand you are prescribed to must be given.

Some important advice includes:

It is important in an emergency to call 999, ask for an ambulance and make sure you say anaphylaxis.

Our anaphylaxis course covers the use of Epi-Pens, Emerade and Jext as well as recognition of signs, treatment and concerns. Training is available as a video online or face to face course nationwide.
