About Naloxone or Narcan used in Harm Reduction Outreach by the Chicago Recovery Alliance to stop overdose deaths (OD) by drug users. Naloxone is used by Paramedics and emts worldwide to prevent death.
But I forogot o say that (in Germany) no one pays for treatment with naloxone. Its not accepted by the health fund here although it is the only medicine that keeps people clean. This world is only about money, keeping people sick is business.
I took Naltrexon for some time. Its kinda like Naloxon but its affecting 24hours. If you really want to stay clean from Heroin there is nothing better. Because you can take as much as you want and NOTHING happens. Its blocking your receptor.. I know one guy finished heroin with that stuff ( I didn’t make it, sadly..)
I overdosed 2 times (heroin)… well if you count the first one as two since i needed narcan twice to stay awake then ok… 3 times. It was truly an awakening… It works very fast and luckily each time i was not addicted physically so i did not go into withdrawals from it (and yes i had been sick from kicking). I kicked for 10 days and vomited for 7. No fun… Clean for 10 months yesterday. I might not have been a first or 2nd or 3rd time learner but I finally learned…
Some medical “professionals” are MORONS who take their personal crap out on “addicts” or “junkies” they feel are to blame for the “problem”… These medical professionals should be reported and charged for abuse.
We have so many poor and diverse names for naloxone that we did need this and it has made quite a difference to people learning to say it right. Too many similar words in this area and accordingly much confusion as the drugs do different things – sometimes the opposite – and knowledge is empowerment!

Good for you!
I’m a Paramedic in Canada, and it’s heartening to know that people get well after I’ve helped them.

Yep, which is why Suboxone is harder to get in the US than Methadone…

Thank you for sharing this. People like you will eventually lift the stigma behind so much harm.

True. Please pass this onto IGNORANT medical professionals who should stop practicing their jobs and get psychological help.

don’t give naloxone to patients who are awake. It’s contrary to guidelines and is cruel to addicts
March 9th, 2010 at 4:18 am
yes it’s true but why do some medical folks give it to people(addicts) who are awake?

There’s no need to keep repeating “naloxone”.
