Report #8475

[gotcha] Instructing how to use an epinephrine auto-injector for anaphylaxis without specifying duration and site

Specify injection into the mid-outer thigh \(vastus lateralis\) and mandate holding the device in place for the required duration \(10 seconds for EpiPen, 5 seconds for Auvi-Q\) to ensure drug delivery, followed by immediate ER visit.

Journey Context:
Agents might vaguely say 'inject into the leg' or 'inject and remove.' Injecting into the buttock or abdomen is ineffective and dangerous. Furthermore, removing the auto-injector too quickly leaves the drug in the spring-loaded mechanism, delivering zero medication. The user must hold it for the specific device's duration.
