Demi Lovato

This may be the first high-profile naloxone success story - this opioid/opiate antagonist likely saved Demi's life yesterday, and had it been administered in time could have saved Prince and Petty too. It's becoming much easier and cheaper to obtain this emergency drug. If anyone you know is an recreational heroin, fentanyl, or other opioid user, or a pain sufferer using high doses of these drugs including hydrocodone, oxycodone, Dilauded, or similar meds, be sure they and anyone often at home with them has some naloxone and knows how to use it. Some types can only be administered by another person, not the one barely breathing due to an opioid overdose.

wow that's very interesting and good to know, thanks.

I've got a friend living in an Oxford House (which is a sober/halfway house) and they have two boxes of intranasal naloxone on the kitchen counter. every resident of the house receives instruction on how to administer.

It's imperative to get this into the hands of every addict and friends if addicts. Unthinkable how many lives could and should have been saved just in the past few years.

Heard her version of Let It Go while out and about today and got really bummed out. Hope she's doing well.

funnily enough I heard Cool For The Summer in a bar tonight and it really leapt out at me and made me feel sad about what's happening to her. It's such a great song - her delivery and focus and energy is probably unrivalled in pop right now for me

it blows my mind that at ten years old she was in Barney and was releasing albums in her mid teens - it's like, how do you reconcile that kind of fame and pressure with being adolescent?

By taking smack

nice, only 13 hours to come up w/ that one

don the real article
