Adfam is running this poll for family members to contribute to a wider consultation by Release on the supply of naloxone, to make the case for changing legislation so naloxone can be supplied by a wider range of services.
Naloxone is a drug that reverses the effects of opioids among dependent individuals. It is used as an emergency treatment for opioid overdose.
If you are the family member of someone that is dependent on heroin or another opioid and they are or have been in contact with a service to support them with their dependence, we want to know if naloxone is available at that service, and if it isn't, if you want it to be.
Thank you for your assistance with this work. Please respond by Monday 22 June 2020 and if you have any questions please email
