    pronounced as (nal ox' one)

    Prescription and nonprescription (over the counter) naloxone nasal spray is used along with emergency medical treatment to reverse the life-threatening effects of a known or suspected opiate (narcotic) overdose in adults and children.

    Naloxone nasal spray is in a class of medications called opiate antagonists. It works by blocking the effects of opiates to relieve dangerous symptoms caused by high levels of opiates in the blood.

    Naloxone comes as a solution (liquid) to spray into the nose.

    It is usually given as needed to treat opiate overdoses.

    Each naloxone nasal spray contains a single dose of naloxone and should be used only once.
