Naloxone, also known by the brand name “Narcan” is a prescription medicine that rapidly reverses heroin and other opioid overdoses. The application of Naloxone reminds us that the “antidote” isn’t a cure-all—it’s only the first step in recovery.
The enactment of ACT 139 – “David’s Law”- provides first responders, friends and families access to naloxone, an opioid overdose reversal medicine that will save lives and hopefully lead an individual toward the substance abuse treatment they need.
