Overdose not suspected

If you do not suspect they are overdosing and they are showing unrelated issues or symptoms, they could still be experiencing a medical event. 

The best thing to do is to call 911 and seek medical attention immediately.

If you determine or suspect that opioids or any street drugs have been used and have Naloxone on hand, it can be used safely, even if the person is not overdosing.

Choose the kind of Naloxone you have available for instructions on how to administer it.


What kind of Naloxone do you have?

​


STAY AND WAIT FOR HELP

When not administering Naloxone, put the person on their side with one arm supporting their head and their knee bent to prevent rolling onto stomach.

Stay with the person until medical help arrives.  

If they stop breathing, making gurgling or snoring noises, or their breathing slows down significantly, you will need to begin CPR.


Overdose not suspected

Revive is NOT a replacement for calling 911 or any other public emergency services. Illicit or “street” drugs, especially those obtained from unknown sources, could be laced with dangerous substances that can only be treated for in a health care setting. If you are in immediate danger from a medical emergency, call 911 and/or the appropriate authorities IMMEDIATELY. Revive is meant as a resource to help you administer life saving aid while you await the appropriate public emergency services.
