You can save lives and stop drug overdose by:

• Knowing the signs of an overdose:
• Falling asleep or losing consciousness
• Doesn’t respond to stimuli like shouting, a pinch or sternum rub
• Slow, weak or no breathing
• Choking or gurgling sounds
• Limp body
• Cold and/or clammy skin
• Discolored skin (especially in lips and nails)
• Small, constricted “pinpoint pupils”

Carrying naloxone. Naloxone is a life-saving medication that can reverse an opioid overdose. Naloxone is safe and easy to use and works almost immediately. It is now available over the counter, without a prescription at pharmacies, convenience stores, grocery stores and gas stations, as well as online.

Having regular conversations with teens, young people and loved ones about the risks associated with fentanyl and mixing drugs, and how to help respond to an overdose to reduce the stigma around seeking help, treatment and care.

Sharing treatment resources, like the 24/7 National Helpline— 800-662-HELP (4357).
