Sciele Pharma has introduced Adrenaclick, a single-dose, epinephrine auto-injector, for the emergency treatment for severe allergic reactions (Type I) such as anaphylaxis. Adrenaclick is expected to be available as a single unit or a two-pack. It is also available in two dosing options (0.15mg and 0.3mg).
Adrenaclick delivers epinephrine, the drug of choice for anaphylactic reactions, with the use of an auto-injector. The Adrenaclick auto-injector is designed to ensure accurate delivery of epinephrine in the thigh through a press-and-hold administration technique.
The product is also designed for ease-of-use with clearly labeled caps, a red injector tip, and color-coded instructions on the side of the unit.
Adrenaclick is indicated for the emergency treatment of severe allergic reactions (Type I) such as: anaphylaxis to stinging and biting insects, allergen immunotherapy, foods, drugs, diagnostic testing substances, and other allergens, as well as anaphylaxis to unknown substances or exercise-induced anaphylaxis.
