Narcan Administration

Cychlorphine and Fentanyl-Laced Substances

Dartmouth is aware that cychlorphine and fentanyl laced substances (including cannabis) are a life threatening concern.  Anyone who uses and or knows others who use illicit substances should familiarize themselves with precautions, responses and resources for a potential overdose.  Currently all Hanover first responders including Dartmouth DoSS and DEMS are trained in the administration of Narcan and can be called upon by dialing 911. Please know that both New Hampshire and Vermont have Good Samaritan Laws that prohibit prosecution of drug offenses when emergency responses are called upon.  So, please, do not hesitate to call 911 if you suspect someone is in need.

Narcan/Naloxone is an over the counter medication and can be obtained from most pharmacies. Students can obtain no-cost Narcan/Naloxone from the Student Wellness Center and Dick's House Pharmacy during regular business hours (8:30 - 4:30).
