Teva Generic Epinephrine Auto-injector Demonstration

This demonstrates the new Teva epinephrine auto-injector, a second generic for Mylan's EpiPen (in addition to the Mylan generic). This device has a number of differences from EpiPen which are outlined in the video.

Bryan Maki, the Teva generic is an authorized generic for EpiPen. www.tevagenerics.com/product/epinephrine-injection-usp-auto-injector
There is also a Mylan generic for EpiPen.

Thanks Julie! I was confused. So, thanks for the link.

I like the Teva more than the original epi pen. that's just my opinion.

[@jenjenn4713]

But after the orange part comes down how do u get it back up?

[@JulieBrownMD]

Jenn Tootoo you don’t. Once you’ve used it, you need to get a new one.

[@JulieBrownMD]

I just realized you meant the trainer. When you put the blue clip back on, the “needle cover” will be able to go back up. Obviously that will only happen with the trainer.

How much?

[@bryanmaki914]

It is not generic for Epipen. It's Teva's generic.

[@majorgeneralmalaise]

It's generic for EpiPen. Usually generics will be produced by multiple manufacturers, who each have their own designs.

[@shantellways6860]

I hate the new design

[@armuk]

either that or pay 3x as much for the mylan epipen
