If someone is overdosing and you call 911 to get help, you and they will not be charged with drug possession or drug use. Oregon drug laws have changed, but the Oregon Good Samaritan law has not changed and still protects overdose witnesses and patients. If you see someone overdosing please call 911 and if you have it, give them Narcan as soon as possible. You should call 911 even if they have been given Narcan because Narcan is short acting and the person needs additional monitoring after the dose is given. You can learn more about the law and ways to save lives at www.fentanylaware.com
Last year, Eugene Police administered Narcan to possibly overdosing individuals 400 times (measured by replacements). When police respond to calls regarding overdoses, neither the caller nor the patient is charged with drug possession or drug use.
