"Making it easier for people to have their
emergency medicine ON them at all times"


Our son was diagnosed with severe food allergies to eggs, nuts, and milk when he
was just three months old.  As he started growing up and the baby bag was no
longer needed,  the challenge of securing that he had the Epipen® next to him at all
times suddenly became quite difficult.  I bought every pouch and carrier I could find  
and this is what I have learned:

  • Medicine Pouch for the purse or a backpack: Carrying the Epipen® in a
    purse or backpack works as long as you keep it on your shoulder at all times.  
    But as we all know, the minute you walk into a party or go visit a friend you
    end up putting the bag down on a corner chair or a table.  In an emergency
    can you be 100% sure that you can find the bag with the medicines in less
    than a minute? What if someone moved it and placed it somewhere else as it
    often happens?

  • Fanny Packs:  No matter how many I buy and how many styles I try, wearing
    a fanny pack is a great idea but for me it only works when I go to the park or
    to a place like Disney World.  They work  if you are wearing super casual
    clothing like shorts.  My husband and kid don't like to wear them, no matter
    how sporty looking they are because they don't like tucking in  their t-shirts,
    and if you don't  they could be quite bulky.  

  • Carrying case/pouch with clip-on hooks:  These work as long as you
    hook them to your belt, but having it hanging off your waist makes it a
    constant conversation piece.  Every time I hook one to the outside of a bag or
    on my waist it's like becoming a walking advertisement billboard which is OK,
    but sometimes you just don't want all conversations to be about allergies.

  • Men with Bags:  No matter how much they try, men are  not wired to carry a
    bag, and if they do, they usually don't remember where they put the EpiPen in
    the bag or even worse yet, where they left the bag.  

The turning point when I realized I "really" had to develop a medicine carrier that could
be worn discreetly and comfortably for long hours was the day our son had his first
school dance.  He wanted to dress semi-formal and didn't want to wear cargo pants
with big pockets.  He put on a nice pair of pants but the Epipen didn't fit in his pockets.  
He decided to  take a bag with him  for the Epipen.  The minute he got off the car he
put the bag in the first open locker he found. .He did what most teen and young adults
do,  so finding a solution became a necessity.    

One day while preparing to go out biking,  I saw my husband struggling to find a place
to put the  Epipen®.  He was trying to put it inside his socks but they kept falling off.
This is how the idea of designing medicine pouches that could be carry on the legs,
arms, ankles, and/or wrist was born. After two years of testing different designs and
materials on kids and adults,  LegBuddy™ and AsthmaPal™  became "a solution to a
need come true".  ....
