Naloxone Access

Naloxone, often referred to by its common brand name Narcan, is a medication that reverses the effects of an opioid overdose, usually within 1-5 minutes. The most common ways to administer naloxone are by injection into the upper thigh or arm muscle, or as a nasal spray (Narcan). Naloxone cannot get you high, and you cannot overdose on it.
