To Whom It May Concern:

This is a request under the Freedom of Information Act. I hereby request the following records:

All studies since 2012 into the safety and effectiveness of naloxone as a treatment for overdoses.

I also request that all fees be waived as I am a journalist -- employed by MuckRock and the Boston Globe -- and intend to use any pertinent information I receive as a result of this request to educate the public.

I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.

Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 20 business days, as the statute requires.

Sincerely,

Todd Feathers

Hi Mr. Feathers,

Our office has two tracks for FOI requests: simple and complex. The estimated wait time for simple track requests is 20 business days. The estimated wait time for complex track requests is 18 - 24 months. You did not specify which Naloxone applications you are seeking information for. On the simple track, we can provide you with readily available approval information (will include safety and effectiveness information) on all Naloxone applications since 2012.

If you are interested in taking information that we have readily available, we can simple track your request and begin processing your request immediately. Please let me know if you would like to simple track your request or wait 18 - 24 months in the complex track.
Thanks,

Elizabeth Lee
