Narcan Nasal Spray is Available Across Rutgers Campuses
Naloxone, brandname Narcan, is a nasal spray medication used to rapidly reverse opioid overdose. Opioids (such as the prescription pain medication oxycodone or fentanyl) can stop breathing during an overdose. This can be fatal if not reversed.
Naloxone is easy to administer, causes no harm, and works immediately. We encourage our Rutgers community to pick up Narcan at the locations below and carry it with them in case of emergency.
To understand what to do and how to administer Narcan if you witness someone you think is experiencing an overdose, please review the video below
