Get Naloxone

what is naloxone?

The Opioid Overdose Reversal Drug

Naloxone, similar to Narcan, is a safe and effective medication that can reverse an overdose from prescription painkillers or heroine in as little as 30 seconds. If you or a loved one are taking opioids for any reason, you should have naloxone on hand.

To request a free naloxone opioid overdose reversal kit, please fill out our confidential order request form found following the 8 minute training video. Please select the English or Spanish button below.

Thanks to a partnership between NEXT Harm Reduction and The Chris Atwood Foundation, people who can not access naloxone any other way are able to receive intramuscular naloxone through the mail. Our work is driven by activism and mutual aid and is largely unfunded, please take this into consideration if you are able to make a charitable contribution to support our work. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

​

To qualify for mail-based naloxone distribution, you will need to view a 8-minute training video, answer a short quiz, and provide enrollment information. The enrollment information is shared with our colleagues at The Chris Atwood Foundation who will mail you naloxone in a plain bubble mailer. Please note that NEXT does not interact with insurance in any way and our enrollment form is not HIPAA compliant.

​

Opioid overdose prevention and response trainings can vary, and in some cases cover the topic extensively. We encourage you to visit our educational resources page to learn more about rescue breathing, the recovery position, opioid overdose aftercare, and a host of other valuable topics. 

​

Our training video, quiz, and enrollment are available in both English and Spanish. Please choose the option that is the most comfortable for you.
