In seriousness if someone is dying right there in front of you; how would one go about saving their life?

  1. The only household material I can think of to help during that, would be the phone.  To call 911.  


  2. Nothing.

    1) Call 911 (or 999, depending on US or UK)

    2) artificial respirations

    Counteracting a heroin OD requires Narcan, a prescription med. It literally "knocks" the heroin off the chemical receptors in the brain.

    Neat stuff. I've had patients got from being blue & not breathing to "No, officer, I don't do drugs." in 3 - 4 minutes.
