I've read (and was told in my Wilderness First Aid class) that epipens are not a good idea for us older folk as they can easily trigger heart attacks. I would consult your physician and not plan to use the pen on anyone except yourself. There's lots of liability, and possible criminal prosecution, involved in giving medication, especially prescription medication, to another person, unless you're a medically trained person licensed to administer such drugs.
