The New York Times continues its excellent advocacy of Naloxone vs the expanding opioid pandemic.
Frequently asked questions about Narcan/Naloxone, an anti-opioid for heroin, morphine, vicodin, oxycontin etc.
As overdose deaths surge, the existence of an antidote as effective as Naloxone is making itself evident. Too bad the medical associations can’t show more leadership on this critical issue.
The availability of naloxone/narcan as a nasal spray holds much promise for its wider deployment.
“It makes sense to focus attention on the most dangerous types of drugs.”
For too many, ‘protection’ by the government leads to their needless death.
With “deaths from narcotic painkillers, or opioids, quadrupling since 1999” wider distribution of Narcan (anti-opioid) is critical.
Here is the substantiation provided to the code examining committees.
Naloxone is a benign drug that CPR volunteers could use to rescue overdose victims, who now outnumber auto fatalities.
Application of an AED in communities is associated with nearly a doubling of survival after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.
The surgeons and firefighters who worked on me all say the key item in surviving a Sudden Cardiac Arrest is the availability of a defibrillator within 2 or 3 minutes.
