Abstract

Transmucosal fentanyl is indicated for patients with cancer who are opioid tolerant, but it is also used for the treatment of noncancerous pain. The following is a survey study of the use of transmucosal fentanyl in 29 patients with noncancerous pain in an academic, community-based pain management practice. Transmucosal fentanyl was found to be safe and efficacious in the patients studied.
