Vaccines to End Fentanyl Overdose
Today’s illicit drugs are being weaponized. Existing overdose treatments are no match for their lethal spread.
America’s defenses to prevent overdose must adapt & evolve for the modern era. OVAX develops proven vaccine technologies to stop fentanyl overdoses before they can begin.

Over 200 Americans Are Killed Everyday
Fentanyl is the single deadliest drug threat our nation has ever encountered.

Fentanyl poisoning occurs when fentanyl moves from a victim’s bloodstream into the brain, triggering the body’s lungs to stop breathing.
Narcan (naloxone) must be available and administered immediately by a bystander or first responder to reverse an overdose, but it rarely is.
Building Fentanyl Armour for Every American
OVAX, developed using established vaccine technologies, prevents fentanyl from entering your brain to keep you breathing upon exposure.
Unlike current emergency response solutions, OVAX is taken annually, offering a robust defense system that immediately neutralizes fentanyl upon exposure.
- Prevents a fentanyl high
- Keeps you breathing
- Removes fentanyl from the body
Our mission is to save lives from overdose by focusing on three key principles: prediction, prevention, and protection.
