A SMART SOLUTION TO PUBLIC ACCESS NALOXONE AND OPIOID OVERDOSE RESPONSE TOOLS
Opioid overdose is currently the leading cause of death among adults 50 years old and younger in the United States.
The NaloxBox mission is to improve the capacity of bystander rescuers to save the lives of victims of opioid overdose with overdose response tools, including naloxone.
Naloxone is an opioid overdose reversal medication.
Without immediate intervention, opioid overdose can quickly lead to death. NaloxBox is a data-driven, innovative solution to address this epidemic.
BENEFITS: • Increase access to publicly available overdose response tools • Provide technical assistance for naloxone storage • Improve the capacity of bystander rescuers • Reduce stigma associated with substance use disorders • Reduce morbidity and mortality from opioid overdose
