The case for stock epinephrine in schools.
A minority of states have legislation concerning non-student-specific epinephrine, or "stock" epinephrine, in schools. Stock epinephrine can be used in anaphylactic emergencies at schools for students who do not have epinephrine auto-injectors on campus. This is a potentially lifesaving measure that should be implemented in schools nationwide.
