South Dakota schools can now stock and administer epinephrine as a nasal spray in addition to auto-injectors for treating severe allergic reactions. School nurses and designated personnel are authorized to use either form when they believe a student is experiencing anaphylaxis, following a prescription or standing protocol from a healthcare provider. Schools must adopt policies on storing and using these medications and notify parents about their procedures.
