Naloxone : I'm sorry that you have to ask this question it would seem that you're asking for someone. If someone is in danger /you think that they've overdosed you need to call an ambulance. There is a drug Naloxone that reverses heroin. It has saved many lives. There are some programs that distribute small doses of Naloxone as a preventative measure to treat an overdose.
