Law officers can carry epinephrine

Law enforcement agencies can get and keep epinephrine autoinjectors and nasal sprays. Officers may give epinephrine in an emergency while on duty. An officer must finish a state‑approved anaphylaxis course and give the agency a certificate before getting or giving epinephrine. The health department approves the training, may issue a standing order so agencies can buy epinephrine, and sets rules. Agencies and officers are not required to carry or use epinephrine.
