'In nearly 40% of overdose deaths, someone else was present. Making naloxone more widely available enables bystanders to save lives,' said David Siegel, co-founder of Victoria's Voice. 'Broader distribution of an effective overdose reversal drug can meaningfully reduce the risk of tragedy. We encourage everyone to secure Naloxone for their homes and cars, and to carry it with them at all times.'.

“在近40%的过量死亡中，还有其他人在场。维多利亚之声的联合创始人大卫·西格尔（David Siegel）说，使纳洛酮更广泛地可用，使旁观者能够挽救生命更广泛地分配有效的过量逆转药物可以有意义地降低悲剧的风险。我们鼓励每个人都将纳洛酮固定在家中和汽车上，并随时随身携带。

The opioid crisis claimed the lives of 110,000 people in the United States last year. The FDA approved the first over-the-counter naloxone nasal spray in March 2023 to help reduce drug overdose deaths. While naloxone is now available over the counter without a prescription, barriers to its widespread use remain, including the stigma associated with drug use.

阿片类药物危机去年在美国夺去了11万人的生命。FDA于2023年3月批准了第一次非处方纳洛酮鼻腔喷雾剂，以帮助减少药物过量死亡。虽然纳洛酮现在可以在没有处方的情况下在柜台上买到，但其广泛使用的障碍仍然存在，包括与吸毒有关的耻辱感。

States, counties and nonprofit programs across the country are providing the drug at no cost to individuals who qualify. The Victoria's Voice and InnovaScript partnership ensures that anyone who wants to have naloxone can readily obtain it at a reduced cost on the foundation's website..
