I just went to get my son’s Epi-pen prescription refilled and was told they’re out of stock due to a “national shortage.” ...is this actually a thing???

Why do you imply the generic is not the "real thing?"
-
The generics had many issues with the delivery mechanism and while it may be equatable chemically, it may not be equatable in how it works for you. We fully support all generics but when it affects your life like this, it’s better to have what you know works vs trying & seeing.

100% this

I just got a generic Epipen 2-pack, and it cost me $15 w/ copay, vs. branded Epipen that would have cost me $400 copay.

And yet the brand and generic might well be made by different branches of the same company. It’s this kind of greed from which we can attack for funding for universal healthcare. It’s just the wealthy think these types of situations will not affect them. They are wrong.

I don't know why an insurance company wouldn't cover generic, I'd question whether they'd even cover brand now
