Overdose Prevention Campaign Advocating Drug Use? ‘Do it with friends’

VIDEO – TRYING ANYTHING –

Jan. 31, 2023 – Another poster from the campaign, which features a gleeful group of drug users, advises to “take it easy” and “go slow” when using. “Use less at first to test the strength of your drugs,” one poster reads.

“Injecting drugs carries the highest risk of overdose, so try smoking or snorting instead,” another poster reads.

Other posters used by the campaign advise those who use drugs, as well as those who may be around drug users at the time of an overdose, on how to use naloxone – a medicine sold under certain brand names like Narcan that is known to rapidly reverse an opioid overdose. “We’re better together,” one poster states. “Know the signs if someone is overdosing. Carry naloxone and know how to use it.”
