Anaphylaxis: epinephrine injection

John L. Bezzant,M.D.

If anaphylaxis or severe urticaria develops, one can use epinephrine 1:1,000, and the dose should be 0.01 cc's per kg injected into the subcutaneous fat, and that should be repeated every 10 to 15 minutes as necessary until the eruption is under control.
