Public health, authorized forms of single-dose epinephrine used by public schools and authorized entities expanded

Summary

The law broadens the type of epinephrine that can be carried, stocked, and used by K‑12 schools, authorized entities, and trained staff to include any FDA‑approved single‑dose pre‑measured product, not just the current autoinjector. It keeps existing self‑administration rules for students, grants liability immunity to schools and entities, and requires training and reporting. The change aims to improve access to life‑saving medication for allergic reactions.
