Naloxone is a life-saving medication that
can reverse an overdose from opioids, including heroin, fentanyl,
and prescription opioid medications. Naloxone is safe and
effective.
Naloxone is available at many Texas pharmacies without a
prescription. For example, naloxone is dispensed at all CVS Pharmacy
and Walgreens locations. Many health insurance plans cover the cost
of naloxone. If you or someone you know is at increased risk for
opioid overdose, please carry naloxone and keep it at home.
