The adrenaline auto-injectors will be used in line with the manufacturer’s instructions, for the emergency treatment of anaphylaxis in accordance with the Human Medicines (Amendment) Regulations 2017. This allows schools to purchase “spare” back-up adrenaline auto-injectors for the emergency treatment of anaphylaxis.
