To provide effective and accurate radiotherapy (RT) for advanced cancer patients who experience breakthrough pain (BP) due to positioning manoeuvres, through the use of FPNS. Secondary endpoints were the dose and time required to achieve a 50% numeric rating scale (NRS) reduction and conduction of a
BACKGROUND
As patients with cancer are living longer, there is a need to ensure that treatments used for palliative care are well tolerated and effective during long-term use.
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the long-term use of fentanyl pectin nasal spray (FPNS) for the treatment of breakthrough pain in
OBJECTIVE
Fentanyl pectin nasal spray (FPNS) is approved for management of breakthrough pain in cancer. It is available in 100 and 400 μg strength products which allow for doses of 100 - 800 μg (1 or 2 sprays). Existing titration strategies require a transition from the 100 μg product to the 400 μg
Pectin is used in several foods as an additive and a thickner. But some cases of anaphylaxis have been reported. Most of these are induced by occasional exposures; however, no cases of anaphylaxis after eating a Citrus unshiu, the albedo of which is rich in pectin, have been reported.A 7-year-old
The aim of this study was to formulate an easily-administered, safe and effective dosage form loaded with meclizine for treatment of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) through the buccal route. CINV comprises bothersome side effects accompanying cytotoxic drugs administration in cancer
