EDMONTON -- A $1.5 million pilot project distributing nasal naloxone kits is coming to the Edmonton area, the province announced Wednesday.

Luan said the program will begin on Tuesday with kits at the George Spady Centre in downtown Edmonton. Naloxone is a medication used as a temporary antidote to an opioid overdose.
