Medium
Increase availability of naloxone

The purchasing of naloxone cannot be supported by Substance Abuse Prevention and Treatment Block Grant (SAPT BG) prevention set-aside funding.

 

HOW TO PURCHASE NALOXONE:

  • Template standing order for distribution of naloxone to community programs
    • This blank standing order can be filled in by a prescriber as a standing order to distribute Narcan Nasal Spray to different individuals or organizations.  It has two appendices:
      • a naloxone distribution form for individuals receiving naloxone at an agency/organization
      • a naloxone distribution form that can be used during larger events
    • Note: this template will need to be revised if you choose to utilize a different form of naloxone other than Narcan
