question for the parents with kids that carry epi pens?
What type of carriers have worked out best for the "teens" that carry their meds with them? The more suggestions the better for me!! Thank you all so much
My six year old carries his in an E-Belt (I'm sure if you google it, you'll find suppliers). I remembered it was a bit expensive, but his school has a policy that the allergic children must wear them, so we bought the E-Belt.
The leg-style carrier for boys sounds great too.
