Elysium Therapeutics Inc. aims to tackle the problem of opioid overdose with a longer-lasting rescue agent that gets around the not-much-publicized problem of fentanyl rebound, or re-narcotization, which happens when the standard reverser wears off and the culprit drug stays active in the body, potentially killing the patient.
