Abstract

Anaphylaxis is a life-threatening, emergency clinic condition, so it is essential to diagnose and treat anaphylaxis immediately. Adrenaline is the first choice in the treatment of anaphylaxis; it is the only drug that prevents death and hospitalization. It is also very important to prevent anaphylaxis as much as treatment, since it is not predictable when it will appear. Adrenaline auto-injectors (AAI) should be prescribed for individuals who have anaphylaxis and are at high risk for anaphylaxis, and they should be informed about when and how to use them. Generally, in adult and pediatric patients, administration of adrenaline in anaphylactic reactions is inadequate and AAI is prescribed at low rates for patients at risk of anaphylaxis.
