A Note About Evidence
• There is less evidence for NMUPDprevention strategies (compared tostrategies for preventing othersubstances).
• A lack of evidence does not mean that astrategy is ineffective.
• Practitioners should rely on experienceworking with other substances.
• It is important for practitioners to collectevaluation data to build the evidencearound strategies.

Is your state, tribe, jurisdiction,
or community currently
implementing any harm reduction
strategies?
16
Prescriber Education3,4,5,6
Involves teaching prescribers:
• How to recognize an individual at risk
• When/how to refer a patient totreatment
• How to talk to patients about thedanger of overdose
• About using tools to identify cases ofpoly-substance use
• About strategies to prevent overdosedeaths
9
17
Overdose Prevention Strategies that Involve Prescribers7,8
• Prescribing naloxoneto patients atincreased risk ofoverdose
• Writing third-partynaloxoneprescriptions tofamily members andpeers

19
Potential Advantages and Challenges
+ -• Potentially cost-effective
• Opportunity to informprescribers about new bestpractices (e.g., guidelinesand alternatives to habit-forming medications)
• Target population can bebusy and difficult to reach
• More effective when usedby all prescribers andpharmacists
• Implementation mayrequire a prescriber orrecognized medical expertto implement
20
Overdose Education9,10,11
Involves teaching groups close to the problem:
• How to prevent overdoses from occurring
• How to recognize when an individual is at risk foroverdose
• How to recognize when an overdose is occurring
• How to appropriately respond to an overdose
• Laws relevant to overdoses (such as GoodSamaritan laws)

Law Enforcement Training on Harm Reduction12,13,14,16,16,17
Involves preparing law enforcement to better respond to and prevent drug overdoses. Topics include:
• Purpose of harm-reduction training
• Foundational information on prescription drugsand other opioids
• Signs and symptoms of an overdose
• Purpose of naloxone, how it works, and how toadminister it
Overdose EducationOverdose Education
12
23
Overdose Education for People Who Use Drugs18,19,20,21,22,23 Overdose
EducationOverdose Education
Informs people who use drugs about:
• Behaviors that increaseoverdose risk (such aschange in tolerance, mixingsubstances)
• How to recognize when anoverdose is occurring
• Steps to take whenwitnessing an overdose

24
Good Samaritan Education24
• Intended to raise awareness of GoodSamaritan laws and policies, and thespecific protections they provide, andbuild confidence in them.
• Audiences include:
o Law enforcement and criminaljustice professionals
o Members of the drug-usingcommunity
o Lay first responders

25
Potential Advantages and Challenges
+ -• Can raise
awareness ofdangers ofopioid misuse
• Can becombined withnaloxonedistribution
• Warning about dangerous substances onthe market can lead individuals withdependence to seek out other harmfulsubstances
• Good Samaritan laws are only effective ifboth law enforcement and potential 9-1-1callers are educated
• Good Samaritan laws and policies are notpresent in all states
• Accessing people who use drugs (andtheir friends/families) can be challenging

What is Naloxone?
Source: http://www.copeaustralia.com.au/home-mobile/naloxone/
28
Naloxone Education and Distribution25,26,27
• Naloxone distribution programs provide access tonaloxone to individuals at risk for overdose and firstresponders who may witness an overdose
• Naloxone education informs the followingpopulations of the role of naloxone in preventingoverdoses:
o Prescribers and dispensers
o Potential first responders (both lay andprofessional)
o Broader community
15
29
State Naloxone Access Laws28,29
• Allow naloxone to beprescribed/dispensed to:
o substance users withdocumented risk factorsfor overdose
o lay administrators(nonmedical firstresponders, potentialoverdose bystanders,family and friends ofopioid users)

Project Lazarus8,34,35,36
Project Lazarus addresses drug overdose deaths, with a focus on prescription drug overdoses. Its overdose prevention program includes:
• Community activation and coalition building
• Monitoring and epidemiological surveillance
• Prescriber, patient, and law enforcement trainingand education
• Overdose reversal medication
https://www.projectlazarus.org/
Naloxone Education and
Distribution
Naloxone Education and
Distribution
34
Potential Advantages and Challenges
+ -• Reduces rates of overdose
deaths
• When naloxone isadministered by aprofessional first responder,individuals who use drugscan be referred to services
• The education component ofthese strategies promotesproper use of naloxone
• Can reduce fatalities but notthe underlying substanceuse disorders
• Prevention practitioners mayface critiques that givingnaloxone to people who usedrugs could encouragefurther use
18
35
Additional Strategies to Note
36
Efforts to Connect Individuals to Treatment38
• Increase access and connect individuals totreatment for substance use disorders, especiallymedication-assisted treatment (MAT).
• MAT involves integrating medications (e.g.,methadone, buprenorphine, naltrexone) inconjunction with behavioral therapies and counselingto treat opioid addiction.
https://www.samhsa.gov/medication-assisted-treatment
19
37
Strategies to Reduce Non-opioid Prescription Overdoses
• Antidotes (e.g., Flumazenilfor benzodiazepineoverdoses)
• Guidance for prescribers(e.g., risks associated withmixing prescriptions)
• Safe storagerecommendations to preventaccidental poisonings

Social marketing campaign
Inappropriate prescribing Prescriber education
Polysubstance use Overdose education
Problem: Anytown experienced high rates of opioid overdose over the past five years
