Narcan (also known as naloxone) is a safe and easy-to-use medication that reverses overdoses, including those caused by fentanyl. Fentanyl is commonly found in cocaine, opioids, and methamphetamine, as well as counterfeit prescription pills (e.g., fake Adderall). Narcan has saved the lives of thousands of Mainers. Participants will learn about how to recognize and respond to a suspected overdose, including how to administer Narcan. We will discuss what happens to a person’s body during an overdose and how Narcan works. Instructors will break down, step by step, how to administer intranasal Narcan.
