This morning @SGottliebFDA updated me on what @US_FDA is doing to: increase the use of naloxone to combat #opioids overdoses, foster greater drug competition with increased low cost generics and lower US smoking rates.

[U.S. Surgeon General @Surgeon_General]

Learning about Arkansas State Board of Pharmacy’s auxiliary drug labels, drug take back programs, naloxone distribution and dispension programs. They have distributed over 2k naloxone kits! #BeAHero #GetNaloxone #SaveALife #EnableRecovery #SafeDisposal
