| Abstract;Addition of fentanyl patch and long-acting oxycodone pill to morphine as opioids for treatment of pain in medium to advanced cancer patients has expanded the width of available treatment. Oxycodone was created as a semi-synthetic derivative. It exhibits relatively high affinity to mu receptor, and is considered to demonstrate its analgesic action through mu receptor. Its dosage can be increased as much as necesssary. It is effective for controlling pain in patients who suffer from neuropathic pain. The side-effects of oxycodone are similar in quality and severity to those of morphine. |
