If allergies, and especially anaphylaxis, are so common, why do we still need prescriptions for epi pens and such?

Things need prescriptions when they’re potentially dangerous or abusable. Epipens (a bunch of adrenaline in rapid-injection device) are both.
How commonly people need a medicine isn’t a factor in whether it’s available over the counter or only with prescription.
