Frequently Asked Questions About Naloxone First Aid Training

What is naloxone?

Naloxone (Narcan) is a fast-acting medication that reverses an opioid overdose for a short time by blocking the effects of opioids and restoring normal breathing. In addition, it is safe, easy to give and has no effect on someone who has not taken opioids.

Is naloxone training included in First Aid and CPR classes?

Yes — naloxone training is included in ALL of the Academy’s First Aid and CPR classes. In addition, every student in a First Aid or CPR class receives naloxone training. Finally, this dedicated Naloxone First Aid Training course is for groups and workplaces that want naloxone training on its own.

Can naloxone harm someone who is not overdosing?

No. Naloxone has no effect if opioids are not present, and it cannot harm someone who is not overdosing. As a result, if you think someone may be overdosing, give naloxone and call 911 — it is always better to give it than to wait.

What is the difference between nasal and injectable naloxone?

Nasal naloxone (Narcan nasal spray) is sprayed into one nostril and is the easiest form to give — no needles are involved. In addition, injectable naloxone is given by injection into a muscle, usually the upper arm or thigh. Finally, both work the same way, and this course teaches you both, step by step.

Do I need a prescription for naloxone, and where can I get a kit in Ontario?

No prescription is needed. In addition, in Ontario, naloxone kits are available free of charge at participating pharmacies and through community harm reduction programs. Finally, ask your local pharmacy about a free naloxone kit.

What should I do after giving naloxone?

First, call 911 — or ask someone else to — then give naloxone, stay with the person and watch their breathing. Next, remember that naloxone wears off in 30 to 90 minutes, so the person can slip back into an overdose. Then, give a second dose if they do not respond, and place them in the recovery position if they are breathing but unconscious. Finally, never leave them alone until paramedics arrive.

How much does Naloxone First Aid Training cost?

Standalone Naloxone First Aid training: $35 + HST. In addition, use promo code SAVE-TEN when you book online for 10% off. Finally, naloxone training is also included at no extra cost in ALL of the Academy’s First Aid and CPR classes.
