Abstract
Opioid abuse in the United States has increased significantly each year and has contributed to over half a million deaths from 2000 to 2015, prompting the need for better patient education and easier access to naloxone. Currently, the opioid antagonist is available over the counter in various pharmacies and facilities across the nation. However, opioid overdose accidents can occur if the naloxone is not delivered in a timely manner.
