B.C. is in the midst of an ongoing public health emergency, declared in 2016 in response to significant levels of overdoses and drug poisonings. In response, BC implemented a decriminalization framework in 2023, removing criminal sanctions for possession of small amounts of certain unregulated drugs. Less than 18 months later, B.C. amended the framework, effectively re-criminalizing public drug consumption and possession in public spaces across B.C. A commentary published in the Canadian Journal of Public Health assesses this amendment through a public health lens. We speak with Kelsey Speed, one of the co-authors of the commentary.

Saving Lives: Joseph Nounou's Revolutionary ResPen for Overdoses Aurospharma.com About the Guest(s): Joseph Nounou, MD, MBA, is an innovative anesthesiologist passionate about expanding the accessibility of life-saving medical interventions. From a young age, Joseph was inspired to pursue a career in medicine, culminating in his graduation from medical school and residency as an anesthesiologist. In addition to his medical expertise, he pursued an MBA from the Haslam School of Business at the University of Tennessee to understand the business elements of getting medical products to market. With a commitment to empowering individuals, Joseph developed the ResPen, an affordable and accessible way to administer life-saving medication to victims of drug overdoses. Episode Summary: In this engaging episode of The Chris Voss Show, host Chris Voss is joined by visionary anesthesiologist, Joseph Nounou, MD, MBA. As they embark on a thought-provoking conversation, the spotlight is on Joseph's revolutionary creation, the ResPen, designed to rescue individuals from life-threatening situations like drug overdoses. With over 107,000 overdose fatalities a year in the US alone, Joseph's groundbreaking device is poised to change the landscape of emergency medical intervention. The discussion explores the intricate balance of medicine and business behind the invention, Joseph's personal journey, and his unwavering commitment to saving lives. During the episode, Joseph and Chris delve into the growing opioid and fentanyl crisis that underscores the need for the ResPen. By focusing on creating a fast-acting solution that even those without medical training can use, Joseph aims to significantly reduce the death toll from overdoses. The conversation also highlights the ResPen's application for cardiac arrest situations, stressing the critical few minutes during which a life can be saved. Beyond discussing this life-saving device, Joseph offers insights on how partnerships and investments can accelerate their mission, and how listeners can get involved. Key Takeaways: Joseph Nunu, MD, MBA, is behind the development of the ResPen, a life-saving device aimed at reducing fatalities from drug overdoses and cardiac arrests. The ResPen is an innovative solution that allows non-medical personnel to administer crucial medication in emergency situations. Drug overdoses claim over 107,000 lives annually in the US, highlighting the urgent need for accessible emergency interventions like the ResPen. Joseph emphasizes the potential of partnerships and investments to bring the ResPen to market faster, urging listeners to get involved in the mission. The FDA's fast-track designation could expedite the ResPen's journey to the public, aligning with the urgency of the opioid crisis. Notable Quotes: "The worst person in the world is probably someone who's evil, so don't be evil." – Chris Voss "It turns out that 350,000 people die outside of the hospital every year from sudden cardiac arrest." – Joseph Nunu "In that period of time, the brain will die. The brain only lives for about five to eight minutes without oxygen." – Joseph Nunu "It's a whole jumbo jet full of people every single day and nobody really pays that much mind because it's just the baseline." – Joseph Nunu "We have a lifesaving medication that really could use some political backing and really could use a quality partner in the pharmaceutical industry." – Joseph Nunu

Greg Sturmer, Co-Founder and CEO of Elysium Therapeutics, a company with expertise in reducing pain and addressing opioid use disorder and fatal overdose from fentanyl. Elysium has developed O2P, Oral Overdose Protection, a technology that aims to control the impact of opioids and reduce the risk of use disorder or a fatal overdose. SOOPR is a rescue agent designed specifically for overdoses from synthetic opioids, particularly fentanyl, which can last longer and be more potent than traditional opioids. Greg explains, "Anytime there's an epidemic, you want to control exposure. The tricky bit in the area of pain management and the use of opioids is how do you control exposure without affecting patient care. We've come up with a technology that maintains the unmatched efficacy of the opioids. But when somebody takes too many pills, and we've actually shown this in our human study, we can reduce the exposure because we use this proprietary molecular delivery system that uses the body's natural digestive process to control how much of the opioid gets released. That's how we're addressing the front end of the issue, where somebody is prescribed an opioid." "But sadly, what happens today is several individuals progress along the road to opioid use disorder, and they end up using illicit drugs. That's where our second program, SOOPR, comes into play. As you know, our streets in the US have been flooded with fentanyl. Fentanyl is a highly potent opioid. The cartels have gotten very wise in how to expand their market. They introduced fentanyl-laced pills because a lot more people are willing to take pills rather than inject. Well, that changed the game dramatically because when somebody overdoses orally on fentanyl, that puts them at risk of respiratory depression for hours where they stop breathing." "Existing rescue agents like Narcan and Opvee weren't designed for oral synthetic opioids and overdoses of those drugs. ‎SOOPR, we believe, is the first rescue agent designed specifically for synthetic opioids. What it does is it outlasts that synthetic opioid danger zone, blocking the mu-opioid receptors and preventing that respiratory depression or rescuing somebody who's already in respiratory depression." #ElysiumTherapeutics #Opioids #OpioidAbuse #SyntheticOpioids #OpioidUseDisorder #PainManagement #SaferMedicines Elysiumrx.com Download the transcript here

Discover the life-saving potential of buprenorphine in the fight against opioid overdoses with Dr. Casey Grover on the latest episode of Addiction Medicine Made Easy. We start with a poignant patient story that showcases the remarkable impact of addiction medicine using Topamax for alcohol use disorder. From there, we shift our focus to the powerful effects of buprenorphine in reducing fatal opioid overdoses, especially in the context of acute fentanyl exposures. Drawing on a pivotal 2020 study from the Journal of Substance Use and Addiction Treatment, we unpack the pharmacological magic behind buprenorphine's ability to block full agonist opioids and explore its potential to protect during the fentanyl crisis.Effective communication with patients about buprenorphine is key, and Dr. Grover emphasizes the importance of this in reducing overdose risks. Reflecting on his own practice, he shares how he now approaches conversations about the medication, underlining that while buprenorphine substantially lowers the risk of fatal overdoses, it doesn't offer complete protection, particularly if not taken regularly. Tune in for actionable advice and insightful discussions designed to elevate your approach to addiction medicine.

Overdose death rates have spiked dramatically for young adults, rising 34 percent between 2018 and 2022, according to recent data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.Yet, there are ways to mitigate the risk of overdose, and even ways to reverse it.Notably there's Narcan.It's a brand of the medication naloxone, and it's often used in the form of nasal spray.

A recent New York Times article shed light on how some fishing communities are grappling with opioid abuse and overdoses in fishing communities. Overdoses at sea are much more difficult to stop than on land. A program founded by Oregon State University in partnership with Oregon Sea Grant called “Fishermen First Aid and Safety Training” (FFAST) trains communities in general first aid including instructions on how to use Narcan, a drug used to rapidly reverse the effects of an opioid overdose. Upon completion of the training, boats are then supplied with a full first aid kit which includes Narcan. Angee Doerr, who works with fishing boats to implement these trainings, joins us to share more.
