SaveMyFriend
Would you know what to do if someone near you overdosed, stopped breathing, or experienced a life-threatening allergy?
SaveMyFriend walks you through it: step by step, in real time, for free. Developed by emergency and addiction medicine physicians, this app puts life-saving guidance in your pocket.
SaveMyFriend guides you through responding to the most common life-threatening emergencies where bystander intervention often means the difference between life and death:
Overdose (opioids, alcohol, benzodiazepines, and others)
Heart attack and cardiac arrest
Severe allergic reactions (anaphylaxis)
Altered mental status
Every guided response in SaveMyFriend uses basic life support (BLS) techniques: foundational skills that anyone can learn and perform, no medical background needed.
All interventions have been reviewed by emergency medicine and addiction medicine physicians.

WHY WE BUILT SAVE MY FRIEND
Most people will witness a medical emergency in their lifetime.
Most have never been taught how to respond.
SaveMyFriend was built to close that gap.
Every second counts, and you don't need to be a medic to help save a life.
SaveMyFriend is and will always be free. No ads. No account required. No personal information collected.
SaveMyFriend™ is developed and supported by DopaGE® - because no one else should lose a friend or loved one to an overdose.
