The drug naloxone (Narcan) can also help treat an opioid overdose by blocking opioids’ effects in the body. This medication is available in a nasal spray and as an intravenous injection at the hospital. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) indicate that 106,699 people died of a drug overdose in the United States in 2021.

Addressing a substance use disorder can help decrease the chance of a drug overdose. Avoid combining prescription medications with other substances, such as alcohol. Do not share a prescription or take medications prescribed to another individual.

Naloxone works to reverse opioid overdose in the body for only 30 to 90 minutes.

How Naloxone Saves Lives in Opioid Overdose

NIDA is supporting research for stronger formulations for use with potent opioids like fentanyl. A drug overdose can occur after an individual takes too much of a medication or substance. The leading cause of drug overdoses today is opioid medications. Stimulants, alcohol, and benzodiazepines can also lead to drug overdose. These and other life-saving measures can help reduce the long-term health effects of drug overdose.

However, the types of opioids involved have changed over time. Side effects from naloxone are rare, but people might have allergic reactions to the medicine. But it only reverses an overdose in people with opioids in their systems and will not reverse overdoses from other drugs like cocaine or methamphetamine. Naloxone is being used more by police officers, emergency medical technicians, and non-emergency first responders than before. In most states, people who are at risk or who know someone at risk for an opioid overdose can be trained on how to give naloxone.

The appropriate number of pills depends on the person and their medication. After calling 911, stay with the individual experiencing an alcohol overdose. If they begin vomiting, help them lean forward so they do not choke. Alternatively, if they have lost consciousness, an individual can place them in the recovery position.

Drug dependence occurs with repeated use, causing the neurons to adapt so they only function normally in the presence of the drug. The absence of the drug causes several physiological reactions, ranging from mild in the case of caffeine, to potentially life-threatening, such as with heroin.

Even after administering this medication, it is crucial to take anyone experiencing an opioid overdose to the emergency room. A drug overdose may occur when an individual consumes too much of a substance. Opioids, stimulants, and other substances can all cause an overdose. Responding quickly can help prevent serious health consequences. The fastest growing drug category among OD deaths is synthetic opioids, and many opioid deaths involve other drugs. The emergency and referral resources listed above are available to individuals located in the United States and are not operated by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA).

NIDA is a biomedical research organization and does not provide personalized medical advice, treatment, counseling, or legal consultation. Information provided by NIDA is not a substitute for professional medical care or legal consultation. Health professionals look at a person’s withdrawal symptoms and tolerance level, among other factors, to determine if a person has an opioid addiction—a severe opioid use disorder. Semi-synthetic opioids, such as heroin and the pain relievers oxycodone, hydrocodone, and oxymorphone, are made in laboratories by chemically processing natural opioids.

This can cause severe brain damage or death.6 This is what happens during an opioid overdose. Opioids are a class of drugs that include both prescription medicines such as morphine and illegal drugs like heroin. For example, overdosing on opioids adversely affects an individual’s ability to breathe. This lack of oxygen can cause organ damage, unconsciousness, and even death. It is important that more is done to prevent overdoses and deaths.

This can raise their risk of serious or even deadly pregnancy complications. The following are some questions people frequently ask about drug overdose. Of course, moderating the consumption of alcohol and other substances can be challenging for individuals with a substance use disorder.

  • Most illegally distributed heroin comes from opium produced in the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and Mexico.
  • Like many other medical conditions, evidence-based treatments are available for OUD, but seeking treatment remains stigmatized.
  • There are two forms of naloxone, (pre-filled nasal spray and injectable) that anyone can use without medical training or authorization.
  • Both of these factors are advantageous if giving high doses of opioids via the subcutaneous route, which is often necessary for palliative care.
  • Heroin overdose is usually treated with the opioid antagonist naloxone.

Injection

  • If someone who is dependent on heroin stops using it, they can have withdrawal symptoms.
  • It’s very addictive and has been illegal in the United States since 1924.
  • People at risk of an overdose are encouraged to carry naloxone with them.
  • The private use and possession of heroin is illegal in most countries of the world, although the drug may be used as a painkiller for terminal cancer patients and others who suffer severe pain.

Heroin addicts—and opioid addicts more generally—commit a disproportionately large share of crimes in countries where drug use is problematic. Though anyone can develop a substance use disorder, genes and environment play a big role in who’ll get one. Other strong risk factors for drug misuse include mistreatment as a child, family history of substance misuse, and a personal history of mental illness or drug use.

Physiological effects

Heroin trafficking was virtually eliminated in the US during World War II because of temporary trade disruptions caused by the war. Japan’s war with China had cut the normal distribution routes for heroin and the war had generally disrupted the movement of opium. Heroin constricts the user’s pupils, slows respiration, heartbeat, and gastrointestinal activity, and induces sleep. Among those addicted to it, however, heroin’s most valued effect is the ecstatic reaction that it gives after being intravenously injected; within seconds a warm, glowing sensation spreads over the body. This brief but intense rush is then followed by a deep, drowsy state of relaxation and contentment that is marked by a clouding of consciousness and by poor concentration and attention. This state lasts two to four hours and then gradually wears off.

Adverse effects

In the U.S., use of pure heroin is highest on the West Coast and areas east of the Mississippi River. This includes cities such as San Diego and Seattle along with Boston, Baltimore, Washington, DC, Chicago, Minneapolis, and St. Louis. A diagnosis is based on specific criteria such as unsuccessful efforts to cut down or control use, or use resulting in social problems and a failure to fulfill obligations at work, school, or home, among other criteria.

Illicit supply chain

Heroin addicts also develop a high tolerance to the drug; thus an addict must use the drug more often or in greater amounts to achieve the desired euphoric effects. Nevertheless, these effects tend to disappear completely in the case of very heavy use, although the physical addiction remains. The private use and possession of heroin is illegal in most countries of the world, although the drug may be used as a painkiller for terminal cancer patients and others who suffer severe pain.

A medication called naloxone can block the effects of opioids and reverse a heroin overdose if it’s used quickly. But it also comes in measured doses as an auto-pen (Evzio) and a nasal spray (Narcan). In some states, you don’t need a doctor’s prescription to get Narcan.
