4 CLINICAL PARTICULARS
4.1 THERAPEUTIC INDICATIONS
Severe pain, which can only be adequately managed with opioid
analgesics.
4.2 POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
Posology
The dosage depends on the intensity of pain and the patient’s
individual susceptibility to the treatment. The following
general dose recommendations apply:
Adults and adolescents over 12 years of age:
_Dose initiation_
In general, the initial dose for opioid naïve patients is 5 mg
oxycodone hydrochloride given at intervals of 6 hours.
Patients already receiving opioids may start treatment with higher
doses taking into account their experience with
former opioid therapies.
Patients receiving oral morphine before oxycodone therapy should have
their daily dose based on the following ratio:
10 mg of oral oxycodone is equivalent to 20 mg of oral morphine. It
should be noted that this is a guide to the dose of
oxycodone hydrochloride capsules required. Inter-patient variability
requires that each patient is carefully titrated to the
appropriate dose.
_Dose adjustment_
Increasing severity of pain will require an increased dose of
Oxycodone Actavis. The dose should be carefully titrated,
as frequently as once a day if necessary, to achieve pain relief. In
doing so, the dosing interval may be reduced to 4
hours. The correct dose for any individual patient is that which
controls the pain and is well tolerated throughout the
dosing period.
The majority of patients will not require a daily dose greater than
400 mg. However, a few patients may require higher
doses.
In patients receiving a prolonged-release formul
