New Jersey S3128 requires county health departments to maintain a reserve stock of opioid antidotes to ensure uninterrupted supply for first.

New Jersey S3128 amends the "Overdose Prevention Act" to mandate that county health departments maintain a reserve stock of opioid antidotes. This reserve stock is intended to be dispensed to first responders, schools that have adopted a policy to acquire and administer opioid antidotes, and hospital pharmacies to ensure an uninterrupted supply. The bill specifies that the exact quantity of opioid antidotes to be maintained in reserve stock will be determined by the director of each county health department in consultation with local law enforcement and fire chiefs, and with input from local.
