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.
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.
Harm reductionist and friend of HRT Van Asher took a moment to talk about how he sees HRT.🤍 We aim to be a people-over-profit organization every single day. After all, people need to be saved, not profits. Thanks for your words, Van. 💪
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.
Reducing symptoms of precipitated withdrawal for the person undergoing them has a positive ripple effect on loved ones, witnesses, and the first responders who are trying to lessen the discomfort of an overdose. With RiVive 3 mg naloxone, we extend compassion to all affected by opioid overdose.
No matter what, HRT will always be guided by one of the most foundational principles of harm reduction – that every single life is worth saving without judgment. Every person who experiences an overdose deserves to experience more compassion and less suffering.
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. 🩶
On National Naloxone Awareness Day, we want to reflect on how far naloxone development has come and look forward to how we can increase accessibility to the medication in its most compassionate form: RiVive 3 mg.
Throughout August, we’re honoring International Overdose Awareness Day by standing with @overdoseday.bsky.social to remember those we’ve lost, support those still struggling, and advocate for harm reduction. 💜 #OneBigFamily.
