The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has approved the prescription-free sale of the second opioid overdose reversal drug, its manufacturer Harm Reduction Therapeutics said on Friday.
Oh, still naloxone, just a different brand. Competition I guess? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
The approval of the drug, called RiVive, will provide patients with another over-the-counter option in the United States, where drug-related overdose deaths surpassed 100,000 in 2021.
So now they’re just throwing xylazine into the mix which isn’t stopped by narcan types.
Who is throwing Xylazine into the mix? A good reversal agent for Xylazine is Yohimbine, and I wonder if cops will start carrying it around since Xylazine is becoming a more popular drug in America. Consequently I wonder what the rising price of both drugs is going to do veterinary clinics across the country. This stuff isn’t cheap.
It’s not approved for human use, so no they won’t
I did not know that. Thank you for letting me know.
It’s being cut by xylazine now allegedly from what I was trained on before I retired.
