The pain of patients who were in the terminal phase of advanced malignant tumors was successfully relieved by M-ESLON(R) capsules of controlled release morphine sulphate (10 30 60 100 mg). The most frequent side effects (sickness, vomiting, obstipation) were effectively controlled. The concentration of the drug in the plasma was stable, therefore the lasting pain relief was ensured.

Background: Prescription opioids are responsible for a significant proportion of opioid-related deaths in the United States. Approximately 6% of opioid-naïve patients who receive opioid prescriptions after surgery become chronic opioid users. However, chronic opioid use after bariatric surgery may be twice as common.

Intrathecal drug delivery systems (IDDS) is a crucial for treating refractory cancer pain, but their effectiveness in patients with pain across multiple spinal segments is limited by the localized spread of pain relief medication. Our team innovatively implanted double-catheter IDDS to manage pain related to neck and abdominal cancer. While this may represent a new solution, the efficacy, safety, and cost-effectiveness remain unclear.

Background/objective: Adequate postoperative analgesics are an essential element in the recovery and rehabilitation of large joint lower-limb arthroplasty patients in their acute postoperative phase. In this study, we will establish that strong opioids like morphine should be included as postoperative analgesics to improve patient satisfaction. Material: This retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted in the Arthroplasty Ward, Trauma, and Orthopaedics Department in a district general hospital of the United Kingdom.

Objective: To assess the relationship between postoperative opioid consumption and frailty status.
Background: Physiologic reserve can be assessed through both chronologic age as well as measures of frailty. Although prior studies suggest that older individuals may require less opioid following surgery, chronologic age, and frailty do not always align, and little is known regarding postoperative opioid consumption patterns by frailty.

Background: The opioid epidemic is leading to increased opioid use in adolescent populations. A growing body of evidence suggests that taking opioids during adolescence can disrupt normal development and impact future offspring. This study investigates the impact of paternal morphine exposure during adolescence on the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis and release of endorphins in the offspring.
