You see, over time, drugs can degrade. (Think about when you let food sit out for a long period of time. It goes bad) It may not hurt you, however, there are some cases where the drug can degrade to a harmful product. It is best not to use expired medicine.
So, it may not hurt you, it may not help you, but it is best not to take the chance.

Why did Mylan raise prices for EpiPen injectors over 400 percent?
Basically because they want to make money, and since people are familiar with their product, they can charge whatever they want, which they think they can get from insurance companies.
Fortunately, there is a generic version of the auto-injector which works a little differently, but is much, much cheaper. It is called the Adrenaclick, and it is a great alternative to using a syringe to inject epinephrine (which also works, but of course you have to be really careful).
There also seems to be something called the Medihaler-Epi which is an inhaler that delivers epinephrine as well, although I don't have any comparative pricing information on that. These are all things that you should talk about with your doctor if the EpiPen is too expensive for your family.

What happens if you take 2 aerius pills?
It is never a good idea to take more than the recommended dose of any medication, so Aerius falls into that. Although no dramatic side effects have been noted for taking more than one dose of Aerius, you still have to be careful. If you did it once by accident or thinking it would work better, you should be fine. Just don't make a habit of it. If one dose doesn't work, talk to your doctor about taking a higher dose or trying a different medication. Just be careful. :)
No, that is not really an allergic reaction. Antibiotics should usually be taken with food, because they can cause stomach distress. If that doesn't help, you can ask for a different antibiotic, if the stomach distress is too much for you, and doesn't go away. Technically, your reaction just means that you have a sensitivity. If you'd like to know the difference, an allergic reaction could eventually lead to death, if you continue taking the medication. A sensitivity is more like an annoying side effect.
