<h3>What is Naloxone?</h3>

It is frequently used to combat breathing problems brought on by opiate overdose. It is also possible to combine naloxone with an opioid (in the same pill) to reduce the chance of injection usage. When administered intravenously, effects start to take effect after two minutes, and after five minutes if an injection is placed into a muscle. The medication can also be sprayed directly into the nostrils of the patient. For 30 to 90 minutes, naloxone often prevents the effects of opioids. Some opioids have longer half-lives than naloxone, thus multiple doses can be necessary.

When administered to opioid-dependent people, withdrawal symptoms from opioids, such as restlessness, agitation, nausea, vomiting, a rapid heartbeat, and sweating, may occur.
