Summary

This study tested how a new form of nalmefene (a drug that reverses opioid overdoses) behaves in the body when given as a shot or through an IV. 13 healthy adults received single doses of both the new and standard versions. The goal was to see how quickly the drug reaches the bloodstream, which could help make overdose treatments faster and more effective.
