Zurnai (Purdue), an autoinjector formulation of the
opioid antagonist nalmefene, has been approved
by the FDA for intramuscular (IM) or subcutaneous

another opioid antagonist, has been available in
single-use syringes for years. Both nalmefene and naloxone are also available in nasal sprays; some
naloxone nasal sprays (Narcan, and others) are
available over the counter.
