Preparing questions in advance can help patients to have more meaningful discussions with their physicians. Patients may wish to ask their doctors the following questions about allergy kits:
-
Am I a candidate for an allergy kit?
-
Can you show me exactly how to use my allergy kit?
-
Where can I obtain an epinephrine trainer?
-
Do I need to carry my allergy kit wherever I go?
-
How should I store my allergy kit?
-
What side effects may I develop from using an allergy kit?
-
How often does my allergy kit need to be replaced?
-
Is it safe to use an allergy kit during my pregnancy?
-
Can I use epinephrine before showing signs of an allergic reaction?
-
Should I have additional kits of epinephrine?
-
Should I go to the hospital following an injection of epinephrine? What if I am feeling fine?
