AUGUSTA, Maine (AP) — Maine's state government and the University of Maine said Thursday a new mobile phone app can help reduce deaths from opioid overdoses.

The Maine Office of Behavioral Health and the university said they've released the free app, which contains naloxone administration instructions. The app's called OD-ME and it provides instructions for both intranasal and intramuscular application.
