PMAT/MAT regulations
 

The current PMAT course does not meet the needs of programs that only administer medication in emergency situations. I ask that the current PMAT course be changed to include the administration of Benadryl.  There is a disconnect between what the PMAT course provides and what physicians are prescribing for emergency situations.  Most food allergy action plans dictate the administration of Benadryl before administering an Epi-pen.
