Abstract

Introduction: Recent years have witnessed widespread reports on the effectiveness of nebulized Morphine for dyspnea, yet there is no evidence for its effectiveness in analgesic therapy. Objective: This study aims to compare effectiveness and side effects of inhalation Morphine with oral Methadone and transdermal Fentanyl in sequential days in end stage cancer patients. Method: This double-blind, randomized controlled study conducted between April and September 2017. Ninety eligible cancer patients presenting to Sayed al-Shohada Hospital were selected non-randomly according to inclusion criteria and then divided to 3 groups in random order. Pain severity was scored by Visual Analog Scale (VAS). Patients were followed up for 3 days and then data were analyzed by SPSS. The benchmark of success was set as marking 4 or below on VAS and a reduction ratio of 50 percent. Results: Pain severity was equal for 3 groups before the first administration (p>0. 05), but it decreased significantly from 8. 45 (range 6-10) at baseline to 2. 46 (range 1-4) at the end of the 3rd day in the nebulized group. The decrease ratio was equal to 70. 8% after three days (p<0. 05). Pain severity reduced from 8. 45 (range 7-10) to 1. 8 (range 1-3) (p<0. 05) in the Methadone group, and reduced from 8. 5 (range 6-10) to 2. 13 (range 1-3) in the Fentanyl group. Conclusion: Our study showed that nebulized Morphine, just like oral Methadone and transdermal Fentanyl, is effective, safe, and well-tolerated for Pain Management in patients with cancer.
