Legislators eye standing order for treatments counteracting severe allergic reactions
Jack Miller, 10, holds a two-pack of his EpiPen prescription. He has a severe tree nut allergy, and has to keep an EpiPen with him at home, school and in the car at all times. His brother also has severe allergies. His family spends thousands each year to keep multiple packs of EpiPens on hand.
Legislators are seeking to create a statewide standing order for a treatment that counteracts severe allergic reactions.
