The usual starting dose of naloxone for people 1 year of age and older, is 0.4 mg to 2 mg. A dose of 0.4 mg may be repeated every 2 to 3 minutes as needed until the desired degree of reversal of symptoms is achieved. The protective effects of naloxone last for 30 to 90 minutes.

If your doctor has recommended a dose different from the ones listed here, do not change the way that you are using the medication without consulting your doctor.
