Dosage & Administration
* Use the lowest effective dose for the shortest duration consistent with individual patient treatment goals. (2.1)
* Individualize dosing based on the severity of pain, patient response, prior analgesic experience, and risk factors for addiction, abuse, and misuse. (2.1)
* Discuss availability of naloxone with the patient and caregiver and assess each patient’s need for access to naloxone, both when initiating and renewing treatment with APADAZ. Consider prescribing naloxone based on the patient’s risk factors for overdose (2.2, 5.1, 5.3, 5.7).
* Initiate treatment with APADAZ at 1 or 2 tablets every 4 to 6 hours as needed for pain. Dosage should not exceed 12 tablets in a 24- hour period. (2.3)
* See full prescribing information for conversion from hydrocodone bitartrate/acetaminophen. (2.4)
* Do not abruptly discontinue APADAZ in a physically-dependent patient because rapid discontinuation of opioid analgesics has resulted in serious withdrawal symptoms, uncontrolled pain, and suicide. (2.6)
