Which is asinine, most of the time your immediate response to Narcan is instant precipitated withdrawal.

You vomit, maybe shit yourself, and have the worst feeling you've ever felt while your opioid receptors are cleaved off and replaced with an antagonist now.

Then there's the secondary reaction some face of "fuck.. I'm not dead and that was my last bag"

It's probably that kind of person who needs the wake up the most.

Unfortunately, it has become a talking point and not a useful tool in a much larger toolbox.

Just like that toolbox the same paramedics have with, ironically, fentanyl and morphine and dilaudid.

They all have their place, but none of them are a one shot fix... At all.

Would you think it was ok to not give the morphine to the guy with a broken leg from a car accident?

😡 "yeah but he knew the risks when he got in that vehicle!"

Most addicts and users are using what they know to get by.

The same idea as to why Jerry with the broken leg didn't flap his arms and fly to work.

Everything in life is inherently dangerous, we should be reducing the harm it causes without flat out prohibition.

This is a nice addition to my copies of 48 Laws Of Power, Art Of Seduction, and Machiavellis Prince!

Don't you know how reddit works?
