A new Kansas law will allow use of expired naloxone to reverse opioid overdoses.

“In an emergency, having naloxone available—expired or not—can be the difference between life and death,” DCCCA Chief Community Based Services Officer Chrissy Mayer said.

Governor Laura Kelly signed House Bill 2250, which clarifies that expired emergency opioid antagonists may be used to treat an opioid overdose, and permitting first responders to distribute and administer expired naloxone.

“Allowing the use of expired naloxone kits will not only preserve resources with our statewide distribution but also extend access to save lives,” DCCCA Chief Executive Officer Lori Alvarado said.
