We need to have these conversations. Being prepared for any eventuality can save lives. Have #Naloxone available. If you don't have any our amazing friends @ScotFamADrugs can sort you out 👉 bit.ly/3HM50lv
Sometimes, something as simple as starting a conversation about overdose with those around you can be liberating, enlightening n potentially life-changing. With just 2days to go til #IOAD2023, we encourage you to have a conversation about overdose with someone in your life.🧵1/n
