Pennsylvania residents will be able to get free naloxone at nearly 80 locations across the state on Thursday, Dec. 13. That includes places in Blair, Centre, Clearfield, Clinton, Elk, Huntingdon and McKean counties.

Naloxone is a life-saving medication used to reverse the effects of an opioid overdose. 

According to a news release, the initiative is part of the Wolf administration’s effort to reduce opioid overdoses and get residents into treatment. Pennsylvania is one of the states with the highest number of and rates of drug overdose deaths. In 2017, about 5,400 people died from drug-related overdoses in Pennsylvania. That is a 64 percent increase from 2015.

"The life-saving medication naloxone is essential for all of us to have on hand, particularly if you have a loved one suffering from opioid-use disorder," Governor Tom Wolf said in the news release.

This is the complete list of where naloxone will be available Dec. 13. The kits will be available 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. unless otherwise noted.
