Marin County…Let’s get ourselves aware:
Combatting Overdose Deaths
If you see someone you believe is experiencing a mental or behavioral health crisis, call the County of Marin's Mobile Crisis Response Team Monday – Friday 8:00am to 9:00pm, Saturday 1:00pm to 9:00pm, at 415-473-6392.
If you suspect someone is overdosing, please administer NARCAN® and call 911.
What is NARCAN®?
Naloxone (brand name NARCAN®) is a life-saving, over the counter, FDA-approved medication that is used to reverse the effects of overdoses from opioids such as he**in, fentanyl, oxycodone, and morphine. Naloxone can be administered by bystanders in two ways: through injections (like a shot) or via nasal spray. NARCAN® is the spray version, which comes two per kit.
