HOW TO GET NALOXONE (or Narcan):

Organizations in Multnomah, Washington or Clackamas County that complete this course can register to purchase discounted naloxone (Narcan) through the Multnomah County Health Department Pharmacy.

Public service and non-profit Organizations in Multnomah, Washington or Clackamas County may also be eligible to receive supplies at no-cost to your program through a limited project funded by CareOregon.

We will discuss additional avenues for obtaining Narcan or Naloxone for your organization.
