A Comprehensive Cross-Sectional Analysis of Naloxone-Related Content on the Social Media Platform TikTok

Naloxone-related content appears to be widely available on the social media platform TikTok. Videos were primarily created by harm reductionists seeking to educate users on the platform. With an estimated two billion users, TikTok may be an effective way to disseminate harm reduction techniques. Given the minimal education needed to administer naloxone, social media platforms such as TikTok may be useful in harm reduction education, aiding naloxone training efforts, and destigmatizing addiction and overdose treatments.

Abstract

Naloxone-related content appears to be widely available on the social media platform TikTok. Videos were primarily created by harm reductionists seeking to educate users on the platform. With an estimated two billion users, TikTok may be an effective way to disseminate harm reduction techniques. Given the minimal education needed to administer naloxone, social media platforms such as TikTok may be useful in harm reduction education, aiding naloxone training efforts, and destigmatizing addiction and overdose treatments.
