Medicaid prescriptions for opioid overdose reversal drug
naloxone have increased dramatically over the last decade, a new analysis
shows. Medicaid covered 3,328 naloxone prescriptions in 2010, a number that
rose 71-fold to reach 236,388 in 2018, according to a new report from the
Urban Institute. Generic naloxone products made up 99% of prescriptions in
2010, but just 11% in 2018.
