I hope SJP speaks out against the huge EpiPen price increase. Parents should not have to make as much money as the Broderick / Parker household just to afford an EpiPen for their child.

She publicly denounced and severed ties with Mylan today

My friend told me of his friend who died on her birthday after suffering from an allergic reaction to peanuts. On her birthday, they specifically asked the restaurant to make food that was nut free and not cooked with anything that had nuts. Apparently, one of the oils or something had nuts. She had an allergic reaction at the dinner table amongst her friends and died later at the hospital. These nut allergies are no joke.

Johns Hopkins has a program to desensitise people to life threatening allergies. I had bacterial endocarditis and the only drug I could be given was a form of penicillin. I have been extremely allergic to penicillin after nearly dying from it at age 9 in 1959. I was in a coma 2 weeks. Yet a Danish doctor from Johns Hopkins was able to treat me with penicillin for 7 weeks. I still had some reactions but not life threatening. After the 7 weeks I am still allergic to penicillin & carry epi-pens.

I love this video! I have an anaphylactic allergy to citric acid! I also carry an EpiPen with me at all times.

This is so important and a plan is necessary even when the person is grown up and away from the family home. (Out with friends etc.) perhaps more important because family is not there to support them and help in emergencies.

[@freydog]

Thank god I get my Epi-pen free😅 thank you NHS (England)

[@paigeloralei]

I have a case to carry my EpiPen but the price has changed so much like $57 was the price before now we have it up to $600

Dominic Lee "You know who you sound like? An ER doctor."

[@John-pd9zv]

Parker is a shill for Mylan, the company that has a monopoly on epipen. In 2007 EpiPen cost $57, now it's over $600. When will she address this greed with her employer?

[@littlebird8346]

She announced today that she has severed ties with the company because they raised the price so high

[@John-pd9zv]

Good for her! Shows she has integrity.

[@NinjaOutfitInTheWash]

She is so likeable!

[@an.dr.16561]

An E R doctor damn

[@juliasandel9555]

Adoreee

[@kevinmund2720]

Sad that she only talks about living with it rather than finding the cause. If she hadn’t allowed peanut protein injected in her son from the first day of his life, she most likely would not have this current problem. Come on guys, when you super sensitise the immune system to a food protein that has bypassed the digestive system, surely you will understand how you can trigger anaphylaxis by then consuming the food. How was peanut oil injected their son? When and by whom? Come on Matthew, be a man and stand up and investigate this. You owe your son at least that much......
