Opioid Treatment

Narcan, the liquid form of naloxone, is a life-saving medication that can reverse an overdose from opioids. In Oklahoma, it can be found across the state in vending machines.

The Oklahoma Opioid Abatement Board awarded $11 million in grants to 71 cities, counties, school districts and public trusts, to help them address the state’s opioid crisis during its Tuesday meeting.

Lawsuits against opioid distributors have materialized into an initial payout of $23 million in grants public bodies can apply for to support treatment and prevention.
