Get naloxone at Philly pharmacies

In 2014, the Pennsylvania Department of Health released a standing order, which allows anyone to visit a pharmacy and receive Naloxone without a prescription. The medication may not be available for same-day pickup, but it can often be ordered and available within a day or two. If a pharmacy does not have it in stock, request that it be ordered or ask if another location has it in stock. Report any issues with getting naloxone at your pharmacy here.

While many may have a copay for the brand, Narcan, other brands may be free. The Pennsylvania Naloxone Copay Assistance Program will cover up to $75 of any out-of-pocket costs for naloxone.
