Why two NDCs? The FDA registers this code as 0115-1694-30 — a 4-4-2 layout, and that's what's printed on the package and shown on DailyMed. For insurance claims, every NDC is standardized to a uniform 11-digit 5-4-2 format by adding a zero to the labeler segment → 00115-1694-30. Same drug, same package — only the format differs.

Where does this data come from?
NADAC (National Average Drug Acquisition Cost) is the CMS weekly pharmacy-acquisition-cost survey — what pharmacies pay. ASP (Average Sales Price) is the CMS Medicare Part B drug-payment file, published quarterly. Medicaid pays is computed by us from CMS State Drug Utilization Data (total reimbursed ÷ units, trailing 12 months) — gross of rebates and inclusive of dispensing fees, so it reflects what Medicaid paid, not an acquisition cost. Medicare drug plans pay is the median negotiated point-of-sale unit cost across plans listing this NDC in the CMS quarterly Prescription Drug Plan pricing files, before rebates. The VA pays is the federal contract price (FSS, and the statutory Big 4 ceiling where listed) from the VA National Acquisition Center pharmaceutical price file. All are free public government data; each measures a different payer, so the figures are not directly comparable.

⚠️ Warnings and Cautions ~3 min read ▾

5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Do not inject intravenously, into buttock, or into digits, hands, or feet. (5.1) Hold the child’s leg firmly in place and limit movement prior to and during injection when administering to young children or infants to minimize the risk of injection-related injury. (5.1) Rare cases of serious skin and soft tissue infections have been reported following epinephrine injection.

Advise patients to seek medical care if they develop signs or symptoms of infection. (5.2) Administer with caution in patients with heart disease; may aggravate angina pectoris or produce ventricular arrhythmias. (5.3) May aggravate certain coexisting conditions.

(5.3) The presence of a sulfite in this product should not deter use. (5.4)

5.1Injection-Related Complications Epinephrine Injection should only be injected into the anterolateral aspect of the thigh [see Dosage and Administration (2.2) ] . Do not inject intravenously Large doses or accidental intravenous injection of epinephrine may result in cerebral hemorrhage due to a sharp rise in blood pressure. Rapidly acting vasodilators can counteract the marked pressor effects of epinephrine for this inadvertent administration.

Do not inject into buttock Injection into the buttock may not provide effective treatment of anaphylaxis. If Epinephrine Injection is injected into the buttock, advise the patient to administer a second dose of Epinephrine Injection into the anterolateral aspect of the thigh if symptoms worsen or persist, and then go immediately to the nearest emergency room for further treatment of anaphylaxis. Additionally, injection into the buttock has been associated with the development of Clostridial infections (gas gangrene).

Cleansing with alcohol does not kill bacterial spores, and therefore, does not lower the risk. Do not inject into digits, hands or feet Since epinephrine is a strong vasoconstrictor, accidental injection into the digits, hands or feet may result in loss of blood flow to the affected area and may not provide effective treatment of anaphylaxis. Advise the patient to administer a second dose of Epinephrine Injection into the anterolateral aspect of the thigh if experiencing anaphylaxis, and then go immediately to the nearest emergency room and inform the healthcare provider in the emergency room of the location of the accidental injection.

Treatment of such inadvertent administration should consist of vasodilation, in addition to further appropriate treatment of anaphylaxis [see Adverse Reactions (6)] . Hold leg firmly during injection To minimize the risk of injection related injury when administering Epinephrine Injection to young children or infants, instruct caregivers to hold the child’s leg firmly in place and limit movement prior to and during injection.

5.2Serious Infections at the Injection Site Rare cases of serious skin and soft tissue infections, including necrotizing fasciitis and myonecrosis caused by Clostridia (gas gangrene), have been reported at the injection site following epinephrine injection for anaphylaxis. Clostridium spores can be present on the skin and introduced into the deep tissue with subcutaneous or intramuscular injection. While cleansing with alcohol may reduce presence of bacteria on the skin, alcohol cleansing does not kill Clostridium spores.

To decrease the risk of Clostridium infection, do not inject Epinephrine Injection into the buttock [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ] . Advise patients to seek medical care if they develop signs or symptoms of infection, such as persistent redness, warmth, swelling, or tenderness, at the epinephrine injection site.

5.3Risks Associated with Use of Epinephrine in Certain Coexisting Conditions Some patients may be at greater risk for developing adverse reactions after epinephrine administration. Despite these concerns, it should be recognized that the presence of these conditions is not a contraindication to epinephrine administration in an acute, life-threatening si… [Excerpted — this section continues on DailyMed.]

🤒 Adverse Reactions ~1 min read ▾

6 ADVERSE REACTIONS The following clinically significant adverse reactions are described elsewhere in the labeling: Injection-Related Complications [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ] Serious Infections at the Injections [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2) ] Risks Associated with Use of Epinephrine in Certain Coexisting Conditions [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3) ] Allergic Reactions Associated with Sulfite [see Warnings and Precautions (5.4) ] The following adverse reactions associated with the use of epinephrine were identified in observational trials, case reports, studies, or postmarketing reports.

Because some of these reactions were reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure. Cardiovascular : angina, arrhythmias (including fatal ventricular fibrillation), cerebral hemorrhage, hypertension, pallor, palpitations, tachyarrhythmia, tachycardia, vasoconstriction, ventricular ectopy, and stress cardiomyopathy Gastrointestinal Disorders : nausea and vomiting Infections : Clostridial infections (gas gangrene) Metabolism and Nutrition Disorders : transient hyperglycemia, sweating Neurological: disorientation, impaired memory, panic, psychomotor agitation, sleepiness, tingling, weakness, tremor, hypoesthesia, dizziness, headache Psychiatric : anxiety, apprehensiveness, restlessness Respiratory : respiratory difficulties Skin and Subcutaneous Tissue Disorders: bruising, bleeding, discoloration, erythema, necrotizing fasciitis, myonecrosis Adverse reactions to epinephrine include anxiety, apprehensiveness, restlessness, tremor, weakness, dizziness, sweating, palpitations, pallor, nausea and vomiting, headache, and/or respiratory difficulties.

7 DRUG INTERACTIONS Cardiac glycosides, diuretics, or anti-arrhythmics: observe for development of cardiac arrhythmias. (7.1) Tricyclic antidepressants, monoamine oxidase inhibitors, levothyroxine sodium, certain antihistamines, and catechol-O-methyl transferase inhibitors: may potentiate effects of epinephrine. (7.2) Beta-adrenergic blocking drugs: antagonize cardiostimulating and bronchodilating effects of epinephrine.

(7.3) Alpha-adrenergic blocking drugs: antagonize vasoconstricting and hypertensive effects of epinephrine. (7.3) Ergot alkaloids: may reverse the pressor effects of epinephrine. (7.3)

7.1Drugs Increasing Risk of Cardiac Arrhythmias Patients who receive epinephrine while concomitantly taking cardiac glycosides, diuretics, or anti-arrhythmics should be observed carefully for the development of cardiac arrhythmias [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3) and Adverse Reactions (6) ] .

7.2Drugs Potentiating Effects of Epinephrine The effects of epinephrine may be potentiated by tricyclic antidepressants, monoamine oxidase inhibitors, levothyroxine sodium, and certain antihistamines, notably chlorpheniramine, tripelennamine, and diphenhydramine, and catechol-O-methyl transferase (COMT) inhibitors such as entacapone.

7.3Drugs Antagonizing Effects of Epinephrine The cardiostimulating and bronchodilating effects of epinephrine are antagonized by beta- adrenergic blocking drugs, such as propranolol. The vasoconstricting and hypertensive effects of epinephrine are antagonized by alpha-adrenergic blocking drugs, such as phentolamine. Ergot alkaloids may also reverse the pressor effects of epinephrine.

👥 Use in Specific Populations ~3 min read ▾

8 USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS Elderly patients may be at greater risk of developing adverse reactions. (5.3 , 8.5)

8.1Pregnancy Risk Summary Prolonged experience with epinephrine use in pregnant women over several decades, based on published literature, have not identified a drug associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage or adverse maternal or fetal outcomes. There are risks to the mother and fetus associated with anaphylaxis, and treatment with epinephrine should not be delayed (see Clinical Considerations) . In animal reproduction studies, epinephrine administered by the subcutaneous route to pregnant rabbits, mice, and hamsters, during the period of organogenesis was teratogenic at doses 7 times and higher than the maximum recommended human intramuscular and subcutaneous dose on a mg/m 2 basis (see Data).

The background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown. All pregnancies have a background risk of birth defect, loss, or other adverse outcomes. In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2% to 4% and 15% to 20%, respectively.

Clinical Considerations Disease-Associated Maternal and Embryo/Fetal Risk: During pregnancy, anaphylaxis can be catastrophic and can lead to hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy and permanent central nervous system damage or death in the mother and, more commonly, in the fetus or neonate. Treatment of anaphylaxis during pregnancy should not be delayed. Data Animal Data In an embryofetal development study with rabbits dosed during the period of organogenesis, epinephrine was shown to be teratogenic (including gastroschisis and embryonic lethality) at doses approximately 40 times the maximum recommended intramuscular or subcutaneous dose (on a mg/m 2 basis at a maternal subcutaneous dose of 1.2 mg/kg/day for two to three days).

In an embryofetal development study with mice dosed during the period of organogenesis, epinephrine was shown to be teratogenic (including embryonic lethality) at doses approximately 8 times the maximum recommended intramuscular or subcutaneous dose (on a mg/m 2 basis at maternal subcutaneous dose of 1 mg/kg/day for 10 days). These effects were not seen in mice at approximately 4 times the maximum recommended daily intramuscular or subcutaneous dose (on a mg/m 2 basis at a subcutaneous maternal dose of 0.5 mg/kg/day for 10 days).

In an embryofetal development study with hamsters dosed during the period of organogenesis from gestation days 7 to 10, epinephrine was shown to be teratogenic at doses approximately 7 times the maximum recommended intramuscular or subcutaneous dose (on a mg/m 2 basis at a maternal subcutaneous dose of 0.5 mg/kg/day).

8.2Lactation Risk Summary There is no information on the presence of epinephrine in human milk, the effects on the breastfed infants, or the effects on milk production. However, due to its poor oral bioavailability and short half-life, transfer of epinephrine into breastmilk is expected to be low. Treatment of anaphylaxis in breastfeeding patients should not be delayed.

8.4Pediatric Use The safety and effectiveness of Epinephrine Injection for the emergency treatment of type I allergic reactions, including anaphylaxis have been established in pediatric patients who weigh 15 kg or greater. The use of Epinephrine Injection for this indication is supported by clinical experience. Clinical experience with the use of epinephrine suggests that the adverse reactions seen in pediatric patients are similar in nature and extent to those both expected and reported in adults.

Since the doses of epinephrine delivered from Epinephrine Injection are fixed, use other forms of injectable epinephrine if doses lower than 0.15 mg are deemed necessary. The safety and effectiveness of Epinephrine Injection have not been established in pediatric patients who weigh less than 15 kg.

These effects were not seen in mice at approximately 4 times the maximum recommended daily intramuscular or subcutaneous dose (on a mg/m 2 basis at a subcutaneous maternal dose of 0.5 mg/kg/day for 10 days).

In an embryofetal development study with hamsters dosed during the period of organogenesis from gestation days 7 to 10, epinephrine was shown to be teratogenic at doses approximately 7 times the maximum recommended intramuscular or subcutaneous dose (on a mg/m 2 basis at a maternal subcutaneous dose of 0.5 mg/kg/day).

🧒 Pediatric Use 122 words ▾

8.4Pediatric Use The safety and effectiveness of Epinephrine Injection for the emergency treatment of type I allergic reactions, including anaphylaxis have been established in pediatric patients who weigh 15 kg or greater. The use of Epinephrine Injection for this indication is supported by clinical experience. Clinical experience with the use of epinephrine suggests that the adverse reactions seen in pediatric patients are similar in nature and extent to those both expected and reported in adults.

Since the doses of epinephrine delivered from Epinephrine Injection are fixed, use other forms of injectable epinephrine if doses lower than 0.15 mg are deemed necessary. The safety and effectiveness of Epinephrine Injection have not been established in pediatric patients who weigh less than 15 kg.

🧓 Geriatric Use 81 words ▾

8.5Geriatric Use Clinical studies of Epinephrine Injection for emergency treatment of type I allergic reactions, including anaphylaxis, were not conducted in geriatric patients aged 65 and over to determine whether they respond differently from younger adult patients. However, other reported clinical experience with use of epinephrine for the treatment of anaphylaxis has identified that geriatric patients may be particularly sensitive to the effects of epinephrine. Therefore, these patients may be at greater risk for developing adverse reactions after epinephrine administration.

🆘 Overdosage 183 words ▾

10 OVERDOSAGE Overdosage of epinephrine has been reported to produce extremely elevated arterial pressure, which may result in cerebrovascular hemorrhage, particularly in elderly patients. Overdosage may also result in pulmonary edema because of peripheral vascular constriction together with cardiac stimulation. Epinephrine overdosage can also cause transient bradycardia followed by tachycardia which may be accompanied by fatal cardiac arrhythmias; premature ventricular contractions followed by multifocal ventricular tachycardia; atrial tachycardia and occasionally by atrioventricular block; extreme pallor and coldness of the skin; metabolic acidosis; kidney failure.

Epinephrine is rapidly inactivated in the body and treatment following overdosage with epinephrine is primarily supportive. Treatment of epinephrine associated pulmonary edema consists of a rapidly acting alpha-adrenergic blocking drug (such as phentolamine mesylate) and respiratory support. Treatment of epinephrine associated arrhythmias consists of administration of a beta-adrenergic blocking drug (such as propranolol).

If necessary, pressor effects may be counteracted by rapidly acting vasodilators or α-adrenergic blocking drugs. If prolonged hypotension follows such measures, it may be necessary to administer another pressor drug. Consider contacting the Poison Help line (1-800-222-1222) or a medical toxicologist for additional overdosage management recommendations.

🧬 Clinical Pharmacology 119 words ▾

12 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY

12.1Mechanism of Action Epinephrine acts on both alpha- and beta-adrenergic receptors. Through its action on alpha-adrenergic receptors, epinephrine lessens the vasodilation and increased vascular permeability that occurs during anaphylaxis, which can lead to loss of intravascular fluid volume and hypotension. Through its action on beta-adrenergic receptors, epinephrine causes bronchial smooth muscle relaxation and helps alleviate bronchospasm, wheezing, and dyspnea that may occur during anaphylaxis.

Epinephrine also alleviates pruritus, urticaria, and angioedema, and may relieve gastrointestinal and genitourinary symptoms associated with anaphylaxis because of its relaxer effects on the smooth muscle of the stomach, intestine, uterus and urinary bladder.

12.2Pharmacodynamics When given subcutaneously or intramuscularly, epinephrine has a rapid onset and short duration of action.

There may be new information. You, your parent, caregiver, or others who may be able to administer Epinephrine Injection should know how to use it before you have an allergic emergency. This information does not take the place of talking with your healthcare provider about your medical condition or your treatment.

What is the most important information I should know about Epinephrine Injection? 1. Epinephrine Injection is a medicine used to treat allergic emergencies (anaphylaxis).

Anaphylaxis can be life-threatening and can happen within minutes. If untreated, anaphylaxis can lead to death. Allergic emergencies may be caused by stinging and biting insects, allergy injections, foods, medicines, exercise, or other unknown causes.

Symptoms of anaphylaxis may include: trouble breathing wheezing hoarseness (changes in the way your voicesounds) hives (raised reddened rash that may itch) severe itching swelling of your face, lips, mouth, or tongue skin rash, redness, or swelling fast heartbeat weak pulse feeling very anxious confusion stomach pain losing control of urine or bowel movements (incontinence) diarrhea or stomach cramps dizziness, fainting, or “passing out” (unconsciousness) 2. It is recommended that people are prescribed and have immediate access to 2 Epinephrine Injection devices at all times.

Sometimes a single dose of epinephrine may not be enough to treat a serious allergic reaction before seeking emergency medical help. You should also have immediate access to 2 Epinephrine Injection devices in case the first device is activated before the dose can be given. A device that has been activated accidentally cannot be used to treat an allergic emergency (anaphylaxis).

Note: Epinephrine Injection has been activated if you see the needle sticking out of the red needle end and the viewing window is blocked. You may not know when an allergic emergency (anaphylaxis) will happen. Talk to your healthcare provider if you need additional Epinephrine Injection devices to keep at work, school, or other locations.

If you use 1 Epinephrine Injection device to treat an emergency allergic reaction, be sure to replace it so you always have immediate access to 2 devices. Tell your family members, caregivers, and others where you keep your Epinephrine Injection. Make sure they know how to use it before you need it.

You may be unable to speak in an allergic emergency. 3. When you have an allergic emergency (anaphylaxis) use Epinephrine Injection right away.

Get emergency medical help for further treatment of the allergic emergency (anaphylaxis), if needed, after using Epinephrine Injection. Before you receive Epinephrine Injection, your healthcare provider should talk to you about when to get emergency help . If symptoms do not improve or if they worsen after the first dose, or you accidentally inject Epinephrine Injection intothe fingers, toes, hands or feet, a second dose of Epinephrine Injection may be administered with a second auto-injector starting 5 minutes after the first dose.

If more than 2 doses are needed for an allergic emergency, they must be given by a healthcare provider. What is Epinephrine Injection? Epinephrine Injection is a medicine used to treat life-threatening allergic emergencies (anaphylaxis).

It is delivered using a disposable, prefilled automatic injection device (auto-injector). Each auto-injector contains a single dose of epinephrine. Epinephr… [Excerpted — this section continues on DailyMed.]

Your Epinephrine Injection Figure A. Epinephrine Injection, USP 0.3 mg (yellow label) and Epinephrine Injection, USP 0.15 mg (orange label), showing the auto-injector and carrier tube components Important Information You Need to Know Before Administering Epinephrine Injection Epinephrine Injection is a single-dose auto-injector used for allergic emergencies (anaphylaxis) and should be used right away. Before you need to use your Epinephrine Injection, make sure your healthcare provider shows you the right way to use it.

Anyone who may be able to administer Epinephrine Injection should also understand how to use it. Check the expiration date on your Epinephrine Injection, as shown in Figure A . Replace it before the expiration date.

Read this Instructions for Use carefully in a non-emergency situation and make sure you understand them before using your Epinephrine Injection. If you have any questions, ask your healthcare provider. It is very important to hold Epinephrine Injection firmly in place for a full 10 seconds.

If you do not hold it in place long enough, Epinephrine Injection may not have time to deliver the full dose of medicine. Always carry 2 Epinephrine Injection devices. One dose may not be enough to treat an allergic emergency.

You may need to use a second Epinephrine Injection if symptoms continue or come back after the first dose. A second dose may be administered starting 5 minutes after the first dose while you wait for emergency medical help, or if the first Epinephrine Injection is activated before the dose can be given. Inject Epinephrine Injection into the muscle (intramuscular) or under the skin (subcutaneous) in the middle of the outer thigh (upper leg) (see Figure B).

Do not inject Epinephrine Injection into any other part of the body. If you accidentally inject Epinephrine Injection into the fingers, toes, hands or feet , administer a second dose of Epinephrine Injection into the middle of the outer thigh (upper leg). Epinephrine Injection can be administered through clothing if needed.

Figure B. Inject Epinephrine Injection into the middle of the outer thigh (upper leg) Each Epinephrine Injection is for single use only. The dose has been delivered if you see the needle sticking out of the red needle end after use.

It is normal for most of the medicine to remain in the auto-injector after the dose is injected. Do not take the Epinephrine Injection apart. Do not remove the blue needle shield cap and blue end cap until you are ready to use Epinephrine Injection.

Always point the red needle end downward (see Figure C ). Never put your thumb, fingers, or hand over the red needle end. The needle comes out of the red needle end.

Accidental injection into the fingers, hands, or feet may cause loss of blood flow to these areas. If an accidental injection happens, get emergency medical help right away. Figure C.
