In conjunction with this, we are also getting rid of epi-pens in EMS vehicles, planes, and hospitals because this goes beyond a having allergies problem.

Does anyone know how long Narcan's shelf life is? I have some but I want to know if it is worth stocking up
My understanding is that it's quite long. I saw cited a 90% effectiveness at 30 years.
Used to be 2 years, recently changed to 3. Not sure if that’s due to some ingredient change though, so you’re better going with 2 I’d say. But I’m also an idiot. lol

He should check if he's still addicted once he gets rid of the narcan

Testosterone and steroids, at a minimum. Probably body dysmorphia brought on by destruction of his brain from decades of hard drug abuse plus a fucking brain worm

These people want death. They are death worshippers.
Truly, best I can tell, death is seen as the solution to many problems rather than, you know, solutions.
He will do as the brain worm commands
Why would his brain slug do this??
