Question 2

If i am being tested for naloxone specifically, how long will it ,or the other chemicals released by the brain that indicate its use, show up?

Accepted Answer

Are you being tested for the presence of naloxone or opioids?  Suggest you post your question more clearly and with more details.

Question 3

How long after a dose, is naloxone detectable in a urine screen?

Accepted Answer

Whether naloxone is detected on a drug screen depends on each individual's body, on how much was taken, on when it was taken, on the quality of the test, on the type of chemicals the test looks for, on the diluteness of the urine, on pure luck, etc... If the person is taking the naloxone appropriately, no worries. Otherwise, stop using the stuff, and then no worries.

Question 4

Can narcan (naloxone) cause a false positive on a drug screen test?

Accepted Answer

According to an journal article by storrow in the archives of emergency medicine vol 24 issue 6 in 1995.  When 14 volunteers had urine drugs screens done after IV naloxone, all urine samples were negative.
But the only reason to get Naloxone is if you took too much narcotic. That orginial narcotic in your system likely would make the urine drug screen positive.

Question 7

Any good reasons a dr wouldn't want to trial naloxone/narcan off label for a few doses? (for depersonalization)

Accepted Answer

Most physicians who do not want to prescribe a medication off label don&#x27;t prescribe because of a lack of familiarity or lack of comfort in using a particular medication. Another reason could be lack of education and there you can provide help by providing the doctor with the necessary  journal articles.www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15876908
1. J clin psychopharmacol. 2005 jun;25(3):267-70. :).  There is no particular medical reason not to give the patient a trial on this.

Question 8

Will the naloxone in a 4mg suboxone be out of my system in 24 hours? mind you, i am female, 29 years of age, 4' 11", 105 lbs.

Accepted Answer

Suboxone (Buprenorphine) has a half-life on average of 37 hours. So it'll be completely out of your system in about24 days

Question 9

If too much fentanyl is absorbed from a patch due to microabrasions, is there any way (short of naloxone) to encourage speedy elimination?

Accepted Answer

If you are having ANY overdose symptoms, call 800-222-1222 or go to an ER. Call your Dr and don't just hope it will be okay. Don't try to speed elimination w/ home remedies - too risky! Please consider this a priority.

Question 10

Can narcan (naloxone) be effective with a person who takes lortab for pain and drinks alcohol on top of it, and appears to "check out", i.e. become inarticulate?

Accepted Answer

...If the person was becoming inarticulate and "checking out" as a result of narcosis from the lortab.  Narcan (naloxone) is an IV opioid receptor antagonist that is used specifically to counteract narcotic overdose--usually in an emergency setting where a person stops breathing. However, Narcan (naloxone) does nothing to counteract "checking out" from alcohol toxicity which can cause coma and even death by itself.
