Grateful to all the harm reduction advocates who continued to champion this

BREAKING: The FDA has approved the first naloxone product available without a prescription. While this removes the final regulatory barrier to naloxone access, it does not on its own lower the cost.

Calling xylazine “naloxone resistant” is a bit silly, considering that it’s not an opioid and therefore not meant for it. Xylazine is almost exclusively found WITH opioids, and so if someone isn’t adequately breathing, should still be given naloxone along w other supportive care
