This legislation would increase the availability of naloxone by both prescription and standing order.

Additionally, TNSAM noted that SB 2572 received overwhelming bipartisan support from the General Assembly, affirming that the bill is a commonsense step forward to save lives and mitigate the opioid epidemic in Tennessee.
