Do your patients know that it takes as little as a week to lose tolerance to ? When you collaborate with patients about how and when to taper opioid use, you can help to minimize withdrawal symptoms.

In preparation for this year's International Overdose Awareness Day (Aug. 31), dedicate time for building collaborative relationships with your patients and help end overdose.

Clinicians: We know that you put your patients' overall health and safety first. If you prescribe opioids for pain, consider also prescribing naloxone.

Naloxone is a lifesaving medication that can reverse an opioid overdose when given in time. On this Overdose Awareness Day (Aug. 31), CDC resources can help you promote the benefits of naloxone, reduce stigma associated with its use, and get it in the hands of those who need it most.

Nearly 108,000 American lives were lost to drug overdose in 2022. On this International Overdose Awareness Day, we:

• Honor those we’ve lost from drug overdose.

• Encourage healing through treatment & recovery.

• Empower communities to build prevention capacity.

Together we can end overdose.
