I have been told by two different doctors that the Epi-Pen Junior can only be used once the child weighs at least 32 pounds. Is there an alternative for smaller(younger) children? We have been carrying a vial of epinephrine with a syringe since my son was six months old. I have been anxiously awaiting the day he weighs 32 pounds so we can have an Epi-Pen instead. It seems like it would be so much easier to train others to use.
