  • Summary

  • The lifesaving drug overdose antidote Narcan is now being carried on airlines. In this episode, I discuss the reasons for this, the way opioids affect the brain when a person overdoses, and how Narcan acts in the brain to reverse these lethal effects. I also cover some common reasons people are hesitant to carry or use Narcan, as well as some science based information about groups of people for whom having Narcan on hand might be especially important. Whether you know or love someone with addiction, are a parent, teacher, employer, or healthcare professional, or are simply curious to learn more about drug overdoses and how they can be reversed, this episode provides an informative overview of this topic.
