Summary

This study surveys 182 high-risk patients and their caregivers to understand their attitudes and beliefs about being prescribed intranasal naloxone spray, a medication that reverses opioid overdoses. The goal is to find out what barriers exist to prescribing this life-saving spray and how to better educate patients and families. Participants include patients who have already been prescribed naloxone in the past year and their caregivers.
