    Maybe? I’d recommend giving them an orange to peel before shooting unrelated drugs up their nose, but it might work

    Narcan doesn’t eliminate being high in any sort of psychological or emotional way. It blocks opioid effects by flooding available receptors and preventing opioids from attaching to them.

    It’s like a box of those outlet socket protectors people use to baby proof a home…on a microscopic level.

    Wouldn’t do anything at all for any drugs that are not opioids.

    No, for reasons previous answers have stated. Stuff like antipsychotics (risperidone) will stop LSD and shroom trips though.

    Really? You’ve seen it work on meth?

    For weed, just tell them they’ll be fine and wait it out.

    I thought narcan was only for opiates. How does it work on acid, meth, and so forth?

    Edit to add:

    https://www.cdc.gov/overdose-prevention/reversing-overdose/about-naloxone.html

    Naloxone, for example Narcan®, is a medicine that can help people who are overdosing on an opioid. Opioids include prescription medications, heroin, and fentanyl. Sometimes other drugs, including cocaine and methamphetamine, are mixed with fentanyl.

    Naloxone can reverse the effects of an overdose from opioids, including:1

    • Heroin
    • Morphine
    • Oxycodone (OxyContin®)
    • Methadone
    • Fentanyl
    • Hydrocodone (Vicodin®)
    • Codeine
    • Hydromorphone
