Title: NARCAN / NALOXONE
Post by: ebenflow on March 03, 2012, 01:43 am
several dozen postings for powerful opioids, yet none for narcan ! fail!  Can anyone offer some narcan / naloxone ? This would be a literal life-safer.

I have suboxone/noxalone strips (also called films) that I am selling for 2.5 btc apiece, ten for 17.0 btc.  They're 8mg/2mg films.  Straight from clinic.  Interested?

I was just thinking about this the other day.  Would be very interested in purchasing this from a vendor.  Would prefer the narcan nasal spray.

I've been interested in this product for a while as well. Just for those worst-case scenarios...

If you or anyone you know does heroin or any other opiate, it's good to have around.  I've personally seen it save someones life.  Must be a vendor out there with access to "narcan nasal spray"?      Message me.....

freefyte1, Narcan is for OD reversal; don't think the films can accomplish this.  I have seen it save a life... can't understand why it is illegal given that it has no recreational value and causes no harm. grr...   some places with needle exchanges give this stuff away for free!  would be great if someone could turn it around on SR to help folks be prepared for worst-case scenarios.

Ah!  I actually meant to say that the Suboxone has 8mg of Buprenorphine and 2mg of Noloxone all in an orange flavored sublingual film (tongue dissolved), and the Naloxone actually helps to regulate any type of overdose/high dosage scenarios that the user may encounter!  That's why Suboxone has the 'one' at the end of the title.  Sorry for the mis-communications!

Hi freefyte! I hear ya, but to do its magic, the narcan has to outcompete all other competitors for opioid receptors in order to reverse an OD.  Competing compounds would include both the Buprenorphine in suboxone (which has a very high binding affinity for mu-receptors) and whatever other opioids a person has ingested.  Although there are some reports suboxone has been useful in cases of overdose (e.g. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18554353), its efficacy is highy controversial (e.g. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19469751). The tried and true method, used by every EMT, is straight narcan (=naloxone) administered by IV or IN (nasal). Anyone who tangles with opioids should have narcan on hand, along with a buddy standing by who knows when and how to use it.
