In Narcan administration, what is required when giving a second dose?

• A. Use a different device
• B. Use a new device
• C. Use the same device
• D. Do not administer a second dose

Answer: (B)

When you need to give a second dose of Narcan, you should use a new device. Narcan nasal spray devices are designed for one-time use, and delivering a second dose with the same device can result in an unreliable spray, potential contamination, or an ineffective dose. A fresh device ensures you deliver the full, intended amount and maintains proper sterility and dosing accuracy. If a second dose is required, switch to a new Narcan device and continue to monitor the patient closely.
