The life-saving medicine Naloxone is available free from Somerset drug and alcohol service.
A medicine which can prevent death from a drug overdose is available via an app for the first time in England.
The app is part of a pilot scheme that also involves a free home-delivery service for the medication. 400 police officers in Bristol recently received training in how to administer naloxone after a batch of heroin claimed several lives, it was reported on BBC Points West last month. The app provides a directory of locations where the medication can be obtained, including local pharmacies and needle exchanges.
