The dad's in the troop who are MD's have provided training for us to admin the pen and I have a list of which boys are known to have severe reactions to such things. -Robert |

Are there prescriptions for each boy who needs the pen? |

Epinephrine is a prescription drug (FDA regulated). It may be carried
just as any other prescription drug may be: with proper prescription. Such epinephrine prescriptions (usually for autoinjectors such as Epipens) cover patients such as those with an anaphylaxis risk. Fentanyl is a prescription drug (FDA), and it is also a controlled substance (Drug Enforcement Agency of the Department of Justice). It may be carried just as other controlled substances may be: with proper prescription. Such fentanyl prescriptions (usually for transmucosal fentanyl such as Actiq) cover patients such as those with opioid-treated cancer pain.

: Remember that Anthony is not a physician and has never studied medicine. He knows nothing about physiology, prescriptions, or anything remotely related to medicine. (the same is true for flying). Anthony has yet to demonstrate knowledge of anything pertaining to life as we know it. The closest relationship between Anthony and real life is the Microsoft BSD, which is an extremely accurate simulation of Anthony's brain whenever he attempts to think. |
