No one is supposed to share their prescribed medications with another person for any reason due to the possibility of serious problems and interactions with other medications a person might be taking. If a person carries and EpiPen and they go into anaphylactic shock and is unable to use the EpiPen, someone with them must act quickly and use the EpiPen to deliver the life saving medication in the pen.
