In this episode of 'The Top Line' we reply an important show from April 28, 2023 regarding Narcan. 

On March 29th, the FDA approved the Narcan nasal spray for over-the-counter sales. It is the first naloxone product approved for use without a prescription. In this episode of The Top Line, Fierce Pharma staff writer Fraiser Kansteiner launches a mini-series to explore what that means for the opioid epidemic. The series will tackle questions about using the product, its accessibility and whether the move will save lives.
