A cheaper generic version of the EpiPen will be available before Christmas.
The EpiPen helps quickly treat people suffering from life-threatening allergic reactions.
Over the last several years, the drug company Mylan has increased the price by more than 400 percent – the steep increase resulting in harsh criticism and a federal investigation.
The generic version of the EpiPen will be about half the price, set at $300 for two doses.
