Opioids. Fill with preparedness.

Carry naloxone – an Rx that can reverse an overdose. Anyone taking opioids — even those prescribed by a doctor — has an elevated risk of overdose. Which is why it’s so important to have naloxone on hand. Available through your doctor or pharmacist, it’s a safe and easy- to-use prescription that temporarily reverses the effects of opioids during an overdose until professional help arrives.
