The First Nations Health Authority (FNHA) now provides access to naloxone nasal spray kits through the FNHA Harm Reduction Hub. 

The Harm Reduction Hub provides community workers and healthcare providers with easy access to harm reduction services and supplies, including bulk supply of nasal naloxone.

First Nations Health Benefits (FNHB) continues to cover naloxone nasal spray kits through the drug benefit program for status First Nations individuals who are not able to easily use injectable naloxone, or do not have access to the BC Centre for Disease Control’s Take Home Naloxone (THN) Program. 

Providers can request access to the Harm Reduction Hub at harmreduction@fnha.ca.
