Surgeon general urges Americans to carry Narcan
It’s what the doctor just ordered.
The US surgeon general on Thursday urged everyday Americans to start carrying the opioid overdose antidote naloxone — better known by the brand name Narcan.
It was his office’s first national public health advisory in 13 years.
“You don’t have to be a policeman or a firefighter or a paramedic to save a life,” Dr. Jerome Adams told the National Rx Drug Abuse and Heroin Summit in Atlanta.
The drug, which is injected into or sprayed into the nostrils of a person who is overdosing, is credited with pulling at least 26,500 people back from the brink in the US between 1996 and 2014, according to the National Institute on Drug Abuse.
But naloxone has also proven controversial, with critics charging that it discourages addicts from seeking treatment because it lowers the risk of death. Maine Gov. Paul LePage, who has argued it “perpetuates” the cycle of addiction, has been pushing to place age restrictions on the drug.
Adams hit back at the naysayers in his speech Thursday.
“There are people out there who think naloxone doesn’t make a difference: You’re just going to go on and misuse substances again,” Adams said.
“That would be like me saying I’m not going to do CPR on someone having a heart attack because if we save them, they’re just going to go out there and eat fast food and be back here all over again.”
Around 95 percent of insured Americans are covered to buy naloxone, while the uninsured can often get it through local public health programs, Adams said — and he’s pushing for more public funds to increase access.
