Correct answer: E — Call emergency services after giving naloxone because its effect may wear off
Naloxone can temporarily reverse opioid toxicity but emergency care is still required. In this vignette, "Call emergency services after giving naloxone because its effect may wear off" is the safest single best answer. The other options are less appropriate because they miss the key clinical risk, conflict with UK medicines guidance, or delay needed review.
