Naloxone reverses an opioid overdose. It's free through the programs below,
regardless of insurance or immigration status.
True everywhere in the U.S., right now
Naloxone (brand names Narcan, RiVive) is available over the counter at pharmacies
nationwide — no prescription needed. If cost is a barrier, the free options below
exist specifically for that.
Most pharmacies carry naloxone without a prescription. If you have
Medicaid, your copay is often $0 — check before paying out of pocket.
