The firefighter said he was given narcan.

Was narcan available 30 years ago?

Over 50. I personally remember an instance in which it was used in the Berkeley Free Clinic on a guy I helped bring in for a morphine OD back in the early 1970s.

I remember when Narcan was first issued to ALS ambulance teams.
That was in 1982 or 83.
It has been around for a while.
