NJ Providing Nalaxone Freely & Anonymously at Participating Pharmacies
Naloxone Distribution at Participating Pharmacies - https://nj.gov/humanservices/stopoverdoses/
In January 2023, Governor Murphy announced a nation-leading program to allow anyone 14 years or older to acquire naloxone anonymously and at no cost at participating pharmacies across New Jersey. The Department of Human Services partnered with the New Jersey Board of Pharmacy and its Medicaid division to craft and implement this unique program.
