Naloxone (pronounced nal-ox-ohn) is a medication that reverses an opioid overdose. Naloxone works by restoring a person's ability to breathe. Common brand names for naloxone are Narcan and Evzio. 

Signs of an Opioid Overdose
  • Infrequent, uneven, or stopped breathing
  • Clammy skin
  • Blue-ish/grayish lips or fingernails
  • Pinpoint pupils
  • Deep snoring/gurgling
  • Unresponsive to pain 
How Naloxone Works
  • Naloxone is a safe and effective medication that can reverse the effects of opioid overdose. It is usually sprayed into the nostril or injected into the leg. Overdose is caused by opioids blocking receptors in the brain that controls breathing. Naloxone blocks the opioids from the receptors. It works for 30-120 minutes. Naloxone helps the body to start breathing again.
