In some states, you can get naloxone from any pharmacy. Like a flu shot, the pharmacist can write a prescription for the naloxone, so you do not need one from your doctor. Most insurances cover naloxone, so you should have a low or no copay. Some states are still rolling out naloxone access at pharmacies, which means that a pharmacy might need to order it for you or they might suggest you ask your health care provider for a prescription. Ask your pharmacist!
