PEDIATRIC EQUIANALGESIC OPIOID DOSE CONVERSION - Table 18

The equianalgesic doses (oral and parenteral) can be affected by interpatient variability, type of pain (for example, acute versus chronic), chronic administration, and tolerance. The following table should serve only as a guide when switching from one opioid to another. It is recommended to reduce the dose of the new opioid by 30 to 50 percent to account for incomplete cross tolerance, and to periodically monitor for efficacy and adverse reactions and the dose adjusted accordingly.

°CAUTION IN ONCOLOGICAL PATIENTS D/T BLEEDING RISK AND RENAL ADVERSE EFFECTS. LIMITED USE FOR SHORT PERIOD ONLY.

(#) This chapter refers only to pain conditions in pediatric oncology patients which accompanied by unbearable suffering at the end of life and when all usually used drugs in conventional doses have been proven non-effective. This type of treatment of pain management is referred to as palliative sedation. All drugs are given intravenous.

(* *) These tables refer only to patients with Mucositis Pain. Moderate and severe Mucositis Pain often prevents patients from taking any medication orally. Rectally administered medication is contraindicated in this patient group. Slow release and transdermal preparations are not indicated for Mucositis Pain, which is rapidly changing.

ALL PRODUCT USE ARE BY SmPC BELLOW THE RECOMMENDED TREATMENT AGE - OFF-LABEL USE.

THE WHO CONCEPT OF “THREE-STEP LADDER OF PAIN RELIEF” (1986) CAN BE MODIFIED IN CHILDREN TO THE TWO STEP STRATEGY (WHO 2012): PAIN CONTROL IS PLANNED “AROUND THE CLOCK” WITH OPIOID TITRATION BASED ON PAIN SEVERITY AND PERSONAL RESPONSE IN MODERATE PAIN CONSIDER THE USE OF LOW DOSE STRONG OPIATES TO RELIEF PAIN. LOW DOSE OPIATES ARE EFFECTIVE THERAPY FOR MODERATE PAIN, CONSIDERING THE LIMITED AVAILABLE WEAK OPIATES.
