Each Epi-Pen has 0.3 mg of epi in it. Nowadays that's about 3 bucks worth of epinephrine. I've been giving that dose in the ER for 30 years now, for allergic reactions, when it was warranted. MYLAN is price gouging the crap out of people who's lives, and who's children's lives, depend on the availability of this apparatus. Not surprisingly, the CEO's yearly salary has increased from 2 million dollars to 19 million dollars during the same time period that the price has increased for the Epi-Pens. This is pure greed and nothing more.
