Improving Naloxone Access through Community Pharmacies in BC
Zahara Mamdani
The BC Take Home Naloxone (THN) program, established in 2012, provides
naloxone to individuals at risk, or likely to witness, an opioid overdose, primarily
through community-based organizations and harm reduction sites. In December
2017, the THN program expanded to selected community pharmacies across BC
in order to further increase access of naloxone, specifically to those who may be
reluctant to obtain it from traditional harm reduction sites. The evaluation of the
THN program in community pharmacies was conducted to identify strengths
and barriers to the implementation of the program, and inform its improvement.
