This is an academic paper that describes an educational intervention done by pharmacy students targeting pharmacies that said they would not provide naloxone without a prescription, even though there was a standing order (i.e. naloxone is available without a prescription) in the state of Texas where the study was done. This academic detailing had positive effects on the availability of naloxone.
