A pain control option for your toolkit
Other forms of opioid pain relief can have inefficient administration routes, which can have a negative effect on the patient experience and clinical outcomes.
Intravenous (IV) pain relief has associated risks of tissue infiltration or air bubbles (5).
Oral pain medications can have a slow onset of action, are subject to first pass metabolism and are not suitable for many patients.
In contrast, Dzuveo® is available as a ready to use sublingual tablet, which is straightforward and uncomplicated to administer.
