Naloxone is available from Georgia Overdose Prevention for those at high risk* of overdose and their loved ones.
Naloxone is also available at GA pharmacies, does not require a personal prescription, and is covered by most insurances.
What is GA’s 911 Medical Amnesty Law?
Georgia Law Protects You
Protection for people who call 911 and seek medical assistance for someone experiencing a drug or alcohol-related overdose. The caller and the victim cannot be arrested, charged, or prosecuted for personal use quantities of drugs, alcohol, or drug paraphernalia if the evidence was obtained as a result of seeking medical assistance and the caller remains at the scene with the victim.
Our message is simple: Don’t Run – Call 911!
Request a Naloxone Kit
You can get a naloxone rescue kit and be trained in its use.
If you are high risk* you can fill out the form below to get a free naloxone kit while supplies last.
High risk* – actively using street or RX opioids and any other street drug, in recovery from opioids or any street drug, a sex worker, have a lowered tolerance to opioids from a period of not using drugs, on MAT, or a loved one of a person at risk.
If you do not match any of our high risk descriptions, you can still purchase naloxone at Georgia pharmacies without a personal prescription.

GA Overdose Prevention Needs Your Support
Georgia Overdose Prevention’s mission is to educate Georgians about the new laws governing drug overdose incidents and to distribute opioid overdose rescue kits to anyone who knows a person at risk for opioid/opiate overdose. We created and were instrumental in the passage of Georgia’s 911 Medical Amnesty and Naloxone Access Law in 2014.
We are a volunteer organization comprised of people whose lives have been impacted by the death of a friend or family member from opiates and opioids.
Please help us save lives by funding the naloxone kits that we are able to purchase at a discounted price and give away to those in need. We sincerely appreciate all contributions.
