NJ addiction recovery expert eyes the potential of over the counter Narcan

WNYC News | Apr 10, 2023

Local addiction recovery experts are watching closely as the overdose-reversing drug Narcan becomes more widely available for sale over the counter by late summer.
The Food and Drug Administration just announced the move, which clears the way for the drug to be sold at non-pharmacy locations, such as supermarkets and gas stations.
Howard Haughton — CEO of the social services organization Eva's Village in Paterson, New Jersey — joined WNYC's Michael Hill to talk about Narcan's life-saving abilities and the future of its use in New Jersey.
