BORDERS NALOXONE

About Us:

Naloxone is the emergency antidote for overdoses caused by heroin and other opiates or opioids (such as methadone, morphine and fentanyl).

The main life-threatening effect of heroin and other opiates is to slow down and stop breathing. Naloxone blocks this effect and reverses breathing difficulties.

Naloxone is a prescription-only medicine, so pharmacies cannot sell it over the counter. But drug services can supply it without a prescription. And anyone can use it to save a life in an emergency.

Key About Us Points:

  • Peer 2 Peer led service
  • offering training
  • Education and raising awareness of Naloxone
  • Supplying Naloxone
