What if naloxone is given to someone who is not overdosing on opioids? Will naloxone work for alcohol, cocaine, meth or other types of overdoses?

Naloxone only blocks the opioid receptors so it will not have an effect, positive or negative, on anything other than an opioid overdose. If you mistakenly give naloxone to someone who is not overdosing on opioids, you will not help or harm them.
