Overdoses of opioids, such as heroin, fentanyl, and prescription opioids, can be reversed with the use of naloxone if administered promptly. Another name for it is Narcan. Naloxone can bring about a return to normal respiration and awareness by obstructing the effects of opioids on the brain. With no room for abuse, naloxone is both effective and safe.
Several versions of naloxone are on the market, including nasal spray, oral, and injectable. Many pharmacies, health departments, and community groups provide naloxone to those in need. Many pharmacies stock naloxone, and it's also supplied frequently by health departments and community groups. The availability of naloxone has been enhanced, leading to a surge in demand.
Businesses in every industry, including private healthcare, have felt the effects of the global COVID-19 outbreak and subsequent lockdowns. The widespread use of lockdown measures in response to the COVID-19 pandemic has had a profound effect on the healthcare industry's supply chain. Regional economies around the world have felt the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic in three key ways: first, the supply and demand for healthcare items has been hit hard; second, distribution systems have been disrupted; and third, companies and markets have taken a financial hit.
There are issues with the distribution and delivery of healthcare supplies in a number of nations, including Singapore, Indonesia, and Thailand. The COVID-19 epidemic had a significant effect on the naloxone market since fewer people were getting their prescriptions filled for the drug.As an example, a May 2021 article in the Healio Journal stated that during the COVID-19 pandemic, the number of completed naloxone prescriptions dropped more precipitously than the number of filled opioid prescriptions or any other medicine.
Overdosing on opioids can be fatal unless the medicine naloxone is administered. It binds to opioid receptors and prevents other opioids like oxycodone and morphine from having an impact. This makes it an opioid antagonist. The number of fatal overdoses in the US has reached an all-time high due to the opioid crisis. More than 100,000 Americans lost their lives to drug overdoses in 2021, with opioids being the leading cause of death, according to a report from the National Institutes of Health. Since no other medicine has been found to reverse an opioid overdose, this has led to a high demand for naloxone.
In addition, the opioid pandemic has become much more lethal due to the introduction of fentanyl. It is common practice to combine fentanyl, a potent synthetic opioid, with heroin and prescription opiates. It is easier to overdose on because of its extreme potency compared to heroin or morphine. Since reversing a fentanyl overdose may need numerous doses of naloxone, its use has grown in recent years. As a result, naloxone is in high demand around the world due to the rising number of opioid overdose occurrences.
Some individuals who really need naloxone are unable to get their hands on it because of how expensive it is. The opioid crisis is having a disproportionate effect on minority and low-income neighborhoods, so this is very worrisome. The final cost of naloxone around the globe is significantly increased by the high manufacturing cost, restricted competition, and other factors. The production of naloxone is a highly specialized industry. Price increases may result from an absence of alternatives. The manufacturing process for naloxone is subject to stringent regulatory restrictions, which adds to the complexity of the medication and ultimately drives up its cost.
