Popis: |
A 52-year-old woman had been prescribed oral medication of acetaminophen, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), and oxycodone for intractable pain associated with thoracic metastasis of breast cancer. However, the pain control was poor. Although pregabalin and gabapentin were used as supplementary analgesics, they could not be continued because of their side effects. Based on the noradrenalin reincorporation-inhibiting action of tapentadol, a combination therapy of tapentadol and oxycodone was introduced and satisfactory pain control was achieved. No side effects from the combined opioids were observed. This finding indicates the potential of administrating a combination therapy of m-opioid receptor agonists(such as morphine, oxycodone, and fentanyl)with tapentadol, which has a noradrenaline reincorporation-inhibiting action, as an effective remedy for alleviating intractable pain complicated with neuropathic pain. |
