Mixing Drugs

• If you’re in a group, stagger use so that some people are using, and others wait a bit

Tolerance

• Use a smaller amount if you haven’t used in a few days, or if you’ve switched dealers

• Test a small amount of the substance first, then decide if you want to do more or not

• Teach your roommates, friends, or whoever is near you how to respond to an opioid overdose; have naloxone in an accessible place and ensure everyone knows where it is and how to use it
