New adrenaline auto injector pens for schools

Dear Schools leaders

We have received the new batch of Adrenaline auto injector (AAI) pens for Haringey primary and secondary schools. The brand we will supply will be the Jext® brand of Adrenaline Auto Injector (AAI) pens.

The “spare” AAI(s) pens can be used if the pupil’s own prescribed AAI(s) are not immediately available (for example, because they are broken, out-of-date, have misfired or been wrongly administered). They do not replace the pupil’s own supply of AAI pens.

Please contact Firoz Mazumder the named person at St Ann’s pharmacy department on 020 8702 5421 or email  firoz.mazumder@nhs.net to arrange a time to pick up your allocation of pens.

These pens are replacing the expired Dec 2020 AAI pens and will expire in March 2022.  It is important that schools ensure they have AAI pens that are in date and not expired.

Please complete the AAI supply form before collection and follow instructions in this letter: Adrenaline auto injection pens – letter to schools

If you have any queries, please email harccg.medicines@nhs.net

Many thanks and kind regards
