Is narcan injected now?

  It's usually given as an intramuscular injection. The intranasal form works, but is not quite as effective (though avoids the potential for a needlestick injury to the provider).

  It is injected and some of the opiates on the streets are so strong here you are starting to need administer multiple injections. There is the nasal spray and that is often given out on the streets so addicts can help each other. There are narcan administration classes all the time and it is given to and by night life workers because fentanyl is showing up in party drugs like cocaine and mdma. Lots of friends said they have quit their favourite extracurriculars but they get drunk and in a good mood and forget at 2am, or they know their dealer etc... Pretty scary.
