A two-pack box of Narcan nasal spray pictured on the front desk of the Macon Inn. A Bibb County Superior Court order issued in November 2022 requires that the hotel keep a minimum of 10 doses of Narcan and make it available for guests upon request. The order also required that the hotel post instructions on how to use the live-saving nasal spray in all common areas on the property.
