Adrenaline auto-injectors are currently available and all patients who require an adrenaline auto-injector should be able to obtain a device from their pharmacy. The Department continues to work very closely with all the manufacturers of adrenaline auto-injectors to ensure supply remains available in sufficient quantities to support demand.
