    How To Use Narcan to Save a Friend Dying of Fentanyl Poisoning

    How To Use Narcan to Save a Friend Dying of Fentanyl Poisoning

    #fentanyl #opioids #narcan
    In this very concise episode, Rebekah Brown teaches us what happens when an individual has been poisoned by fentanyl, what to look for, and how to administer Narcan in an effort to save their life.
    To purchase Narcan and keep it in your car/glovebox/backpack for emergencies, go here.
    To watch all my conversations with parents who have experienced Death By Fentanyl of their children, watch the full playlist on youtube here.
    Very Important to watch, listen, like, comment and share on all your social media profiles.
    The video version can be seen here.
    Read my corresponding blog here.
    Over 100,000 children and teens have died last year and the numbers continue to increase.
    Please do your part to share this short video to help young people become aware of the dangers of this illicit, illegal, dangerous, lethal drug.
    Education saves lives!
    I appreciate your support of my work. Please contribute here.

Kristina Driscoll ,

Love, love, love this podcast!

I have a teenage son and the series about Fentanyl overdoses has been so educational and helpful for my son and I . Mary is a very talented podcaster with really powerful advice and messages.

Thanks

Great sincere podcast

Back in charge mindset podcast

Insensitive

“Never would I have anticipated that such a violent China virus would affect so many and take so many lives around the world.” Direct quote from one of her podcasts. Very strange way to refer to covid in the context of a topic that I otherwise very much appreciate.
