Narcan, also known as naloxone, is used to counteract the effects of opioid overdose. It works by rapidly binding to opioid receptors in the brain, reversing the life-threatening respiratory depression caused by opioids such as heroin, fentanyl, and prescription pain medications. Narcan can restore normal breathing and consciousness within minutes when administered promptly. It is an essential tool in addressing the opioid crisis and saving lives.
