  • Minnesota Department of Health, October 27, 2026: opioid overdose deaths fell from 1,039 in 2022 to 671 in 2025, and fentanyl involved deaths fell from 602 to 564 (2024 to 2025). But deaths from all drugs rose from 994 in 2024 to 1,025 in 2025, driven by stimulants. Naloxone reverses opioid overdoses; it does not counteract stimulants.

Minnesota law, in plain words

3 topics

Calling for help: Minnesota’s Good Samaritan law (Minn. Stat. 604A.05) protects a person who seeks medical help for someone who may be overdosing, and the person overdosing, from being charged or prosecuted for personal possession of a controlled substance. The person overdosing is also protected for possessing drug paraphernalia. It does not stop police from making an arrest, and it does not cover alcohol offences.

Naloxone: You can carry naloxone in Minnesota if it was prescribed, dispensed, or distributed by a licensed health care professional, including under a standing order, and a person who gives naloxone in good faith to someone they believe is overdosing is immune from prosecution for that act (Minn. Stat. 604A.04). Several naloxone nasal sprays are approved for over the counter sale, including Narcan 4 mg, RiVive 3 mg, and Rextovy 4 mg. Other naloxone formulations remain prescription only. Naloxone is free at syringe service programs, naloxone access points, and community organisations. At a pharmacy it can cost money.

Supplies and testing: Possessing drug paraphernalia is not a state crime; the old law (Minn. Stat. 152.092) was repealed on August 1, 2023, products that detect fentanyl are expressly not drug paraphernalia (Minn. Stat. 152.01, subd. 18), and drug checking equipment, including xylazine test strips, was decriminalised in the same 2023 laws. State law does not override city ordinances here (Minn. Stat. 152.205), so local rules can differ. Intentionally manufacturing paraphernalia for delivery is still an offence. Pharmacies may sell syringes without a prescription, with no state quantity limit (Minn. Stat. 151.40).
