Oxycodone Hydrochloride 10 mg Tablet

Adult dose

When administering to patients with chronic pain, rather than administering whenever pain occurs, administer at regular intervals (4～6 hours) at the lowest dose that prevents recurrence of pain and provides adequate analgesia. This medicine is administered to adults aged 18 years and older. 1) Patients who have not previously taken opioid analgesics: The usual initial dose is 5 mg of oxycodone hydrochloride hydrate every 4～6 hours. The dose should be adjusted according to the individual patient's response to the initial dose and the severity of adverse reactions. 2) Switching from fixed-ratio opioid/acetaminophen, opioid/aspirin, or opioid/nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug combination analgesics: When switching from a fixed-ratio opioid/non-opioid analgesic regimen to this medicine, determine whether to continue the non-opioid analgesic. If it is decided to discontinue the non-opioid analgesic, titrate the dose of this medicine, taking into account the level of pain relief and adverse reactions associated with the medication regimen. If the non-opioid analgesic is to be continued as a separate single-ingredient product, set the initial dose of this medicine based on the most recent opioid dose as the baseline for subsequent dose increases. The dose should be adjusted according to the individual patient's response and the severity of adverse reactions. 3) Switching in patients currently taking opioid analgesics: When switching from another opioid analgesic regimen to this medicine, determine the initial dose by calculating the potency and conversion ratio of the existing analgesic. 10 mg of this medicine is equivalent to 20 mg of oral morphine. In general, reduce the therapeutic dose by 25～50 % of the daily dose while carefully monitoring for withdrawal symptoms and signs.

Special caution is required for patients with heart disease, hypotension, liver disease, seizure disorders, etc., and the patient's condition should be closely monitored during administration. Long-term use of this medication can lead to physical dependence and tolerance, so doses should be gradually reduced to avoid withdrawal symptoms when stopping suddenly. Drowsiness or dizziness may occur during use, so it is advisable to avoid driving or operating dangerous machinery. Constipation is a common side effect, and dietary adjustments or medications to prevent constipation should be discussed with a doctor.

In case of overdose, respiratory distress, decreased consciousness, and severe hypotension may occur, and immediate emergency care should be sought; an antidote may be administered if necessary.
