The Opioid Crisis:
A Call for Action
The opioid crisis has reached epidemic proportions, affecting millions of individuals and families across the globe. In the United States, the opioid epidemic has been declared a public health emergency, resulting in more than 71,000 deaths alone in 2021, and opioid-related mortality is continually rising. Many overdosed patients are found alone and unconscious, unable to use existing antidote sprays and injectors solutions. According to the CDC, the economic burden of opioid use disorder (OUD) and fatal overdoses had already totaled to $1,021 billion in 2017. As the epidemic has only worsened significantly over time, we can only expect this number to be higher. As OUD continues to ravage communities, there is an urgent need for effective harm reduction strategies. Rescue Biomedical is at the forefront of this battle, driven by a passion for creating real change and saving lives.
Rescue Biomedical LLC is a pioneering med tech startup dedicated to developing innovative solutions to address the devastating impact of the opioid crisis. Our mission is to save lives, keep families together, and alleviate the burden on the healthcare system through our advanced opioid overdose detection and treatment device - The Automatic Antidote Delivery Device (A2D2).
