Naloxone

FPHSA distributes Narcan (or Naloxone) in an effort to prevent overdoses. Narcan can be given to a person in order to reverse the effects of an overdose of opioid painkillers or heroin and is often described as an “opiate antidote.” If you or a family member is at risk of an opiate overdose, we encourage you to have Narcan on hand in the event of an emergency. Narcan can’t be used to get high and it is safe to use on anyone because it’s only action on the body is to reverse the effects of the opiate overdose. It is available in an easy to use form of a nasal spray and should be given to the person who has overdosed while waiting on an ambulance to arrive.
