The Epinephrine Auto-Injector Market is Changing – A Look at the Landscape in 2017

Mylan CEO, Heather Bresch, was called to task by the media and Congress for what some called price-gouging, given the market dominance of the Epi-pen (Mylan’s branded epinephrine auto-injector) following the disappearance of the Auvi-Q and the lack of new auto-injectors being approved by the FDA.But 2017 is a new year and with it comes change – most, in my opinion, for the better. In response to the uproar over Epi-pen pricing, Mylan launched a generic version of their epinephrine auto-injector, with a price tag of $300 for a twin-pack versus the $600 for the branded version. On my plan (CVS Caremark), the generic Adrenaclick is the only epinephrine auto-injector covered without the need for prior approval (at a cost of $370 with $20 out of pocket). It's not clear whether my insurance plan would cover a twin pack of Auvi-Q, but the official list price for a twin pack of Auvi-Q is $4500.

Whole Cranberry Sauce

Here’s the back story: I have made cranberry sauce for every Thanksgiving dinner for – forever – or at least as long as I have been preparing Thanksgiving dinner. But instead of freezing the cranberries, I chose to make cranberry sauce and preserve it. half-pints3 (12-ounce) bags of cranberries2 ½ cups Sucanat (another granulated sugar, e.g., organic cane sugar may be substituted)1 ½ cups apple juice2 tablespoons lemon zest3 tablespoons fresh lemon juiceIf you plan to preserve the sauce, as I did, then start a boiling water bath with jars.

Low Histamine Maple Oatmeal Cookies

It fits the low histamine requirements – even down to using vanilla sugar in lieu of vanilla extract – and I think you will agree that it satisfies the snack craving.128 grams (about 1 cup) gluten-free flour blend½ teaspoon (see below)2 tablespoons canola oil½ cup maple syrup2 tablespoons applesauce100 grams (about 1 cup) quick cooking gluten-free oatsPreheat the oven to 350 degrees. To make vanilla sugar, combine ½ cup organic cane sugar with one whole vanilla bean in the bowl of a small food processor. In addition to being low in histamine, these cookies are of course gluten-free, dairy-free, egg-free, soy-free, and nut-free.
