How Do You Feel About High Schools Having Anti Overdose Drugs [PUBLIC OPINION]
We have not had a drug overdose death at any school in Monmouth County. But with that said, one never knows whether an overdose could occur at or near a school. Having additional trained staff to administer naloxone, if necessary, can save a life ~ Monmouth County Prosecutor Christopher J. Gramiccioni
It was announced this week that all High Schools in Monmouth County will now have the anti-overdose drug "naloxone" a drug that reverses potentially fatal opioid overdoses. The story was reported yesterday at nj.com and it raises questions ....
- Should all schools have these drugs in-case of an overdose?
- Is this an answer?
Ocean County was first to have "anti-overdose" drugs at area high schools and have had for over a year now.
The naloxone kits were donated by Adapt Pharma, of Radnor, Pa.
