I am thinking about asking my doctor to just prescribe epinephrine and regular syringes. I've read a few articles saying some are doing that since its substantially cheaper

That would be ideal, doctors are allowed to do that? I also have expired epi pens lying around, I used to be allergic to bees.

I forgot to mention Adamis Pharmaceuticals received a CRL for Epinephrine Pre-Filled Syringe NDA on June 3, 2016. Which was their second CRL (!) first one received on March 27 2015

Why can't these companies gain FDA approval? Product durability, Patient Usability, Dosing Errors?
