Under the naloxone protocol, the pharmacist must complete at least how many hours of CE on naloxone use?

The key point is a mandated minimum CE requirement to ensure pharmacists are prepared to use naloxone safely under the protocol. The protocol requires at least one hour of continuing education on naloxone use. This baseline training covers how to recognize overdose, counsel patients, and dispense naloxone appropriately. Shorter CE, like 30 minutes, does not meet the minimum. Longer CE, such as 2 or 4 hours, goes beyond the minimum but is not stated as the required amount.
