Narcan - Naloxone Training

Residents and organizations can obtain a FREE NARCAN® Nasal Spray. 
Narcan is a prescription medicine used for the treatment of known or suspected opioid overdose emergencies. 
  • Naloxone has no potential for abuse.
  • If given to a person who is not experiencing an opioid overdose, it is harmless.
  • If administered to a person who is dependent on opioids, it will produce non-life-threatening withdrawal symptoms.
  • It does not reverse overdoses that are caused by non-opioid drugs, such as cocaine, benzodiazepines (Xanax, Klonopin, Valium), methamphetamines, or alcohol.
Learn how to:
  • Recognize the signs and symptoms of overdose
  • Distinguish between different types of overdose
  • Perform rescue breathing
  • Call emergency medical services
  • Administer intranasal Naloxone
