Connecting Iowans to Overdose Prevention
Tele-Naloxone
Tele-Naloxone is a partnership between the Iowa Department of Public Health and University of Iowa Health Care.
These organizations understand that you might not be comfortable asking for naloxone from your family doctor, a local pharmacy or a community organization; and that's okay.
With this program you will simply visit with a pharmacist by tele-medicine, directly from your smart phone or laptop, and get FREE naloxone delivered to your door.
The purpose of the Tele-Naloxone program is to prepare Iowans by providing them a naloxone kit in advance of a possible overdose. In the event of an urgent need for naloxone due to an overdose occurring, please seek emergency medical services and call 911.

Remember, this service is always free to you and your participation is confidential. Your insurance will not be billed for your visit or your naloxone. This is possible with support from the Iowa Department of Public Health.
