Responding to an Opioid Overdose
Steps to Respond to an Opioid Overdose
Naloxone is an injection medication that quickly reverses the effects of an opioid overdose. Many people who use opioids for chronic pain would benefit from having a naloxone kit on hand.
An accident can happen to anyone, at any time.
Take home naloxone kits are available in Saskatchewan without a prescription.
UCPC patients who may benefit from having a naloxone kit can get one free of charge from our program. We provide training to people who use opioids, and to their friends and family.
