Medical Amnesty Law and Videos – Use Naloxone (Narcan)
This law gives immunity to those reporting and experiencing possible overdose!
This is for alcohol and drugs
This law has passed in some states. Doctors can prescribe Naloxone to us parents now. I’m hoping all states will pass this law. If you want to look how to get it, go here and put in your state.
So now if a friend is overdosing, the person using, can call 911 and not be charged. Everyone needs to know this. If my child was passed out or stopped breathing I want them all to know, they can call and not get in trouble!
Getting the word out on this is so very important! It’s going to save lives! Every day people die from overdose in this country. It just HAS to STOP! So please help get the word out on this law!
An estimated 20 million people are now using drugs during any given month of the year! Patients with drug disorders are roughly twice as likely to be diagnosed with mood or anxiety disorders.
This video shows what to do in case of an overdose, how to give mouth to mouth and how to use Naloxone:
There are several videos here about addiction. They are very helpful.
WARNING – This next video shows a girl overdosing and then getting the Naloxone. It’s in Atlanta in The Bluff inside a drug house. It’s pretty upsetting. However, she does come back to life.
I really hope this gets spread all over the internet. Everyone needs to know about it. And for us parents, we need to have Naloxone on hand just in case.
Read More At The Atlanta Harm Reduction Coalition. Lots of info here on drugs.
If you have any questions for me, please leave a comment. I have a lot of other addiction posts at the top of this page. There’s info, my story, what is heroin and others. Have a wonderful day!
COMMENTS WILL SHOW UP AFTER BEING APPROVED. THANK YOU!
