We’re so glad carrying naloxone is becoming more normalized, BUT we want to emphasize the importance of rescue breathing during an overdose too. After you administer that first dose of RiVive 3 mg, rescue breathing is important to supply oxygen to the brain of the person you are reviving.

On International Harm Reduction Day, we remember that we’re not alone in the global effort for equitable care, dignity & compassion for all without judgment. (cont. in comments)
People-first & people-focused is our approach for gathering data at HRT. As part of our 2025 Community Feedback Report, we asked folks with firsthand experience receiving and/or administering RiVive to tell us if it worked the way it’s intended. Read the full report on our website.
In recognition of International Overdose Awareness Day this month, harm reductionist Van Asher talks about the impact of overdose in his own life as well as the ripple effect it has on communities. Thank you for sharing your experience, Van.
The misconception that high doses of naloxone are necessary to reverse a fentanyl overdose can lead to unnecessarily painful precipitated withdrawal symptoms and long-term naloxone avoidance for people who have experienced an overdose (cont in comments).
Better education = more lives saved. When more people, no matter what their relationship to opioids is, understand the risks, the risk of overdose decreases. Let’s continue to have conversations about opioid use in the communities we’re a part of.💬
Hero of the harm reduction community and friend of HRT’s very own Van Asher, Dan Bigg is remembered for his incredible contributions to making naloxone accessible for all. He embodies all that we aim to be here at HRT. 🩶
We see caregivers through the eyes of RiVive.🩶 Using a 3 mg naloxone nasal spray has a ripple effect that impacts those who administer it and are responsible for the wellbeing of the person who overdosed. That’s why compassionate dosing matters to the person who’s overdosed and their caregivers.
When we say Harm Reduction Therapeutics is the only non-profit pharma company focused on compassionate overdose response, what exactly does that mean? We’re breaking it down – watch to learn more and share with a community member!
Waiting for someone to regain consciousness during an overdose can be frightening. We see you and the anxiety of that moment. Waiting the correct amount of time between administering each dose of naloxone is crucial...(cont. in threads)
Today we recognize #IOAD by remembering those we have lost, those who remember them, those who have come back, and those who dedicate their lives to ending overdose. No matter where you fall, we send you love. We are proud to stand alongside this community in the fight to save lives compassionately.
