Having Naloxone on Hand Can Save a Life During an Opioid Overdose



Anyone can save a life during an opioid overdose with naloxone, a front-line defense in the nation's opioid crisis. Naloxone is a life-saving drug that, when sprayed into the nose or injected, quickly reverses the powerful effects of opioids during an overdose.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is working to give more people access to naloxone in case of such an emergency. If someone you know is taking opioids, be prepared and have naloxone handy. Naloxone has saved thousands of lives. It could save even more as more people know about it and have access to it.
