Built For Public Health Distribution And Harm Reduction

Naloxone access is time-critical. This machine is designed for environments where staff may not always be present, allowing individuals to obtain Narcan kits without delay or stigma. The elevator delivery system lowers each item gently, preventing damage to boxed nasal sprays, multi-dose kits, or bundled harm-reduction supplies. The adjustable tray system supports multiple naloxone packaging formats, test strips, and companion supplies, allowing programs to adapt distribution strategies over time without mechanical changes or service interruptions.
