@ian_hamilton_@PeteKrykant_OPC Hey Ian 🤓 #Naloxone does not reverse respiratory depression caused by Pregabalin/ Gabapentin however we should always be mindful in an #OD situation that #pwud may well have consumed more than one substance so if signs and symptoms are present we should call 999 & #use#Naloxone

Drug prohibition means more toxic drugs, more harms & more deaths. Policies of enforcement, incarceration & enforced treatment cause untold suffering, pain, & account for millions of deaths around the world.
It's time to end prohibition, the most dangerous thing abt drug use.
Our Men’s Group is a virtual space for men to socialise, explore difficulties and find solutions together. 🤲

Fab 1st week at @ScotFamADrugs Certainly put through my paces with some cold water therapy on day 4 - an amazing activity organised for some of the family members we support. A massive good luck to @DarylSFAD in your new role & thank you for a fantastic handover this week.
For #DeafblindAwarenessWeek we thought we'd share some information about the condition "Deafblindness is far more common than many people realise… around 400,000 people are affected by sight and hearing loss in the UK. That’s enough to fill Wembley Stadium nearly five times!"
