EpiPen locations will now be at Disneyland, Disney World and on Disney Cruise Line

Walt Disney and the maker of EpiPens, used to treat anaphylaxis, a life-threatening (severe) allergic reaction, have a announced a multi-year alliance.

The deal with Mylan Inc. will bring the EpiPen and EpiPen Jr. Auto-Injectors into the Disney Parks in the U.S. and on cruise ships beginning in late 2014. To help guests identify EpiPen locations, Disney’s guide maps will now include an EpiPen Auto-Injector symbol and new signage at First Aid stations, according to a news release.

“For our guests who live with severe allergies every day, identifying EpiPen locations is an additional tool they’ll have for their anaphylaxis management plan,” Dr. Pamela Hymel, chief medical officer for Walt Disney Parks and Resorts, said in the release.

“We are very proud to be working with Disney, which already has a strong reputation for meeting the needs of people managing severe allergies, and believe we can further raise awareness of anaphylaxis through this collaboration and our joint commitment to education,” Mylan CEO Heather Bresch said.

Emergency Medical Technicians and nurses trained to administer EpiPen Auto-Injectors will be available during First Aid station operating hours to assist guests experiencing a severe allergic reaction.

Anaphylaxis is unpredictable, and can progress quickly and without warning. Epinephrine is the first-line treatment when anaphylaxis occurs.
