SAFER SUPPLY OTTAWA
Updated 12 days ago
Safer Supply is a harm reduction program with a public health approach, which involves prescribing persons who use drugs a pharmaceutical alternative to the illicit toxic drug supply. This allows individuals to use drugs of known quantity and quality, and significantly reduces the risk of overdose, hospitalization, and complications related to drug use. More than just a pharmaceutical alternative, Safer Supply focuses on the individual as a whole and works collaboratively with persons who use drugs to achieve medical, personal and social stability.
