Otsego, Chenango Counties To Hold Free Naloxone Events

OTSEGO COUNTY—Otsego and Chenango counties will participate in the 2023 “Appalachian Save a Life Day” free naloxone event on Thursday, September 14. Naloxone, often sold under the name brand Narcan, is a medication that can safely reverse the effects of an opioid overdose. The FDA approved it for over-the-counter use earlier this year, and many charities and community organizations distribute it for free. Save a Life Day is run by SOAR West Virginia and will feature events in all 13 states recognized as part of the Appalachian region by the Appalachian Regional Commission: West Virginia, Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Virginia, Georgia, Mississippi, Alabama, South Carolina, Maryland and New York.
