So, first thought of a commenter is a lecture on using "homeless". Weird. Note that use of Narcan is a temporary fix. Then it is possible for the user to die. Again. Always call 911. BTW, a single dose of the spray cost about $25. Not exactly aspirin.
Here's a little more information from "Copilot".
Narcan, also known as naloxone, is a medication used to reverse an opioid overdose. It starts working within **2 to 3 minutes** of a dose⁵⁴. Its effects can last anywhere between **30 to 90 minutes**⁵³.
If the person does not wake up or become responsive within **3 minutes** after the first dose, a second dose should be administered⁴⁵. There's no maximum recommended dose for Narcan, and it can be given multiple times as needed, every 2–3 minutes¹.
Please remember that administering Narcan is not a substitute for emergency medical care for opioid overdose. After Narcan has been given, **911 or your local emergency number should be called right away**¹.
This information is a general guide and may vary based on individual patient conditions. Always consult with a healthcare professional for accurate information.
