It's seriously awesome that Narcan is now available widely. I'd love to see the price come down somewhat, though. I just checked the site for my local Walgreen's and a 2 pack is $35.
$35 on some level seems like a great deal for something that can save a life (or even 2!) - I just worry that for the crowd who really needs it the most, $35 might be tough to part with. (I realize that a lot of harm reduction programs hand it out for free, though).
Still, it's extremely encouraging to see that overdose rates are falling this much. I spent a little time a few months ago watching some of Andrew Callaghan's videos covering homelessness and open air drug markets and it's grim out there.
