Are we saving lives or enabling addicts by reversing overdoses? Is receiving Narcan® a wakeup call or does it provide an incentive to keep using drugs? How do you reverse an overdose? Is it like they show it in Pulp Fiction?
Join us for this Up for Debate podcast as we look to separate the fact from fiction around overdoses and reversing it with Narcan®. Dr. Rajiv Prasad, Chairman of Emergency Medicine at Bayshore Medical Center, and Steve Drzewoszewski, Director of Substance Abuse Counseling Services and Director of the Blake Recovery Center at Carrier Clinic, discuss the facts around overdoses and the moral dilemma that comes from making Narcan® easily available.
