Every row comes from that state's official program and statute pages. Filter by what you need, sort any column, and open a state's Narcan finder or its official program page from the row.
Showing every state and DC.
Facts from each state's official program and statute pages, read October 2026. "Not listed" means the fact is not stated on those pages. Standing order means a statewide order that lets pharmacies or organizations give out naloxone; Oregon, Texas and Wyoming list none, and their state pages explain what applies instead.
Getting Narcan over the counter
Narcan nasal spray is sold over the counter. On March 29, 2023, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved Narcan 4 mg naloxone hydrochloride nasal spray for over-the-counter, nonprescription use, the first naloxone product approved for use without a prescription. The FDA said it could be sold in places like drug stores, convenience stores, grocery stores and gas stations, as well as online, with the timing of availability and the price set by the manufacturer.
More over-the-counter naloxone followed. On July 28, 2023, the FDA approved RiVive, a 3 mg naloxone nasal spray, for over-the-counter use, and the FDA's consumer page on naloxone says it has since approved a third over-the-counter naloxone nasal spray. Other formulations and dosages of naloxone remain available by prescription only, and the FDA notes that in many states you can get naloxone directly from a pharmacist without a prescription.
Free naloxone does not depend on a store. Every state program in the table above gives naloxone out through health departments, community organizations or the mail, and the state finders list the sites near you.
What to do in an opioid overdose
Call 911
Say someone is not breathing or won't wake up. Every state and DC in the table above has a Good Samaritan law that protects people who call for help during an overdose, with details that vary by state.
Give naloxone
Spray one dose into one nostril. Follow the instructions on the box.
Support breathing
Give rescue breaths if trained, or roll the person onto their side.
Stay until help arrives
If there is no response after 2 to 3 minutes, give a second dose as the box directs. Naloxone wears off, so the person still needs medical care.
Good Samaritan laws
Good Samaritan laws protect people who call for help during an overdose. In general, a person who seeks medical help in good faith, and often the person overdosing, cannot be arrested, charged or prosecuted for drug possession or paraphernalia when the evidence came from seeking help. What is covered, who is protected and what you must do, such as staying with the person or giving your name, differ from state to state, and some states offer a defense in court rather than immunity from arrest.
Each state's law is cited in the table above, as written in its statute. Each state page explains what that law covers and what it leaves out, in plain words.

What are naloxone vending machines?

Will I get in trouble for calling 911 for an overdose?
Every state and DC in the table above has a Good Samaritan law that protects people who call for help during an overdose. In general, the caller, and often the person overdosing, cannot be charged with drug possession when the evidence came from seeking help, but the details differ by state.

How do I use Narcan nasal spray?

If there is no response after 2 to 3 minutes, give a second dose as the box directs, and stay with the person until help arrives.
