• Naloxone is a medicine that rapidly reverses an opioid overdose. It attaches to opioid receptors and reverses and blocks the effects of other opioids.

• Naloxone is a safe medicine. It only reverses overdoses in people with opioids in their systems.

• There are two FDA-approved formulations of naloxone: injectable and prepackaged nasal spray.

• Police officers, emergency medical technicians, and first responders are trained on how to give naloxone.

• Our staff is trained on how to give naloxone.

• Naloxone only works in the body for 30 to 90 minutes. It is possible for a person to still experience the effects of an overdose after naloxone wears off or need multiple doses if a potent opioid is in a person’s system.

• In some areas, you can get naloxone from pharmacies with or without a personal prescription from community-based distribution programs, or local health departments. The cost varies depending on where and how you get it as well as what type you get.
