AT YOUR LOCAL PHARMACY WITH A PRESCRIPTION

All healthcare providers licensed to prescribe medications in Minnesota may prescribe naloxone, which can be filled at most pharmacies. And in some cases, your insurance may cover the cost of dispensing naloxone.

If you don’t have a prescription from your health care provider, your local pharmacist may be able to write one for you if they have registered with the Minnesota Board of Pharmacy’s Opiate Antagonist Protocol.

Before you go, remember to call your local pharmacy to confirm that they carry naloxone.

How to ask your pharmacist for naloxone:
  1. Ask the pharmacist to write and fill a prescription for naloxone.
  2. Confirm with the pharmacist that the intended recipient does not have a known hypersensitivity to naloxone.
  3. Ask the pharmacist for written information, instructions for administration and resources for disposal.
  4. The pharmacist will ask for consent to notify your primary care provider or provide you with a written record of the prescription.
  5. If you have any remaining questions about administering naloxone, ask.

FOR FREE THROUGH LOCAL HEALTHCARE AND NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS

Naloxone is often available free of charge from organizations such as community-run Syringe Service Programs (SSPs) or Naloxone Access Points (NAPs), a program run by the Steve Rummler Hope Network. Many of these organizations also provide other harm reduction services and training to administer naloxone.
