At least 400 people across the U.S. have had trouble getting their hands on an Epipen in recent weeks, according to a survey from the advocacy group Food Allergy Research & Education.
Mylan (NSDQ:MYL), which makes the emergency allergy auto-injector, reportedly told the FDA months ago that manufacturing delays were straining its Epipen supply.
Some patients reported waiting weeks to find the life-saving device, while others were unable to get an Epipen at all, according to a report from Bloomberg.
