Episode 51 - Naloxone's Availability via Pharmacies and the Stigma With It

Narcan (Naloxone) seems to always be making the news. Dr. Dan Arendt sits down with me to discuss how he is working with his state board to make this process easier to document for pharmacists, which will hopefully lead to pharmacists using their status as providers, in Ohio. Dr. Arendt brings up some great points here about stigma, access and more. There is an Easter Egg at the end where you can comment and actually make a difference as well!
