Oramorph Information For Terminal Prostate Cancer

1 Reply

I am a nursing student. My final exam is focused on palliative care. I would appreciate any information about prescribing in palliative care. The scenario for my exam states that the patient is to be commenced on Morphine Sulphate oral solution, as Oromorph 10mg/5ml, 5mg four hourly to titrate his analgesic requirements. (The patient is suffering from terminal prostate cancer). Any information will be greatly welcomed.
Thanks!!
