Naloxone is a medication that can reverse an overdose that is caused by an opioid drug (i.e., prescription pain medication, heroin, or illicit fentanyl). When administered during an overdose, naloxone blocks the effects of opioids on the brain and restores breathing within 2 to 3 minutes.

Drug testing strips help people check their drugs for dangerous added chemicals, like fentanyl and xylazine. These strips can help prevent overdoses.

(No test is 100% accurate, and drugs may still contain fentanyl, xylazine, and other dangerous substances even with a negative result.  A negative result does not mean that the drug is safe to use.  The presence of other drugs may also result in false positives.)
