I have a grandson that has an actual allergy. Based on the complaining woman's behavior, she either does not have an allergy or has received woefully inaccurate medical information.

An epi pen is NOT a remedy for an allergy and is never administered in advance. It is to open the airway when a severe allergic reaction makes breathing difficult or closes the airway. The patient should then be seen in an emergency room as soon as possible.
