Abstract in brief

  • Takehome naloxone is a critical emergency medicine used to treat heroin and opioid overdoses, and its concept has evolved to include providing supplies to laypeople like friends and family members of opioid users who can administer it while waiting for emergency help.
  • The global opioid overdose crisis has led to an urgent need for wider naloxone access, especially in places like North America where overdose deaths from heroin and fentanyl are rapidly increasing, prompting new legislation and the development of different naloxone formulations, including nasal sprays with improved safety and rapid action.
  • Despite legal advancements allowing over-the-counter and prescription-free access to naloxone, access remains inconsistent across countries and communities, highlighting the ongoing challenge of making this life-saving intervention widely available to those at risk.]
