Correct answer: E — Call emergency services, support breathing and repeat naloxone as directed
This is life-threatening opioid toxicity. Emergency services and airway or ventilatory support are priorities; naloxone should be administered according to training and repeated because its action may be shorter than the opioid. Observation remains necessary after apparent response.
