In the midst of a nationwide shortage of the EpiPen, the Food and Drug Administration is taking action to address the problem.
The agency announced it's extending the expiration dates on the life-saving drug.
The auto-injector is used to treat severe allergic reactions and asthma attacks.
The EpiPen has been on the FDA's drug shortages list since May... so to help in the short-term, expiration dates have been extending for certain injectors that are expired or close to expiring.
