Preparing Yourself
Narcan
Narcan is a medication that can save lives by reversing the effects of an overdose of opioids such as heroin, fentanyl, and prescription opioid medications. Narcan temporarily stops the effects of opioids allowing someone to wake up from an opioid overdose and start breathing again.
Preparing Your Home
Medicine Lockboxes
Any medication—with or without a prescription—can be harmful if taken in the wrong way or by the wrong person. Lock Boxes are one of the most effective deterrents to accidental poisonings, overdose, medicine theft, and misuse.
