Title: Safety and effectiveness of once-daily Hysingla extended-release tablets in patients with baseline depression or anxiety. Author: Taber L, He E, Ripa SR. Journal: Pain Manag; 2017 Nov; 7(6):473-488. PubMed ID: 28747087. Abstract: AIM: Long-term safety and effectiveness of a once-daily, single-entity, extended-release formulation of hydrocodone bitartrate (HYD) for the treatment of moderate to severe noncancer and nonneuropathic pain among patients with and without concurrent depression/anxiety at baseline. MATERIALS & METHODS: Post hoc analysis. RESULTS: HYD demonstrated a safety profile consistent with μ-opioid agonists: Serious adverse events in 12% patients with depression/anxiety including four deaths; 6% without depression/anxiety including one death. All pain scores declined by ≥2 points and mean daily HYD dose remained stable in both subgroups. CONCLUSION: More serious adverse events occurred among patients with comorbid depression/anxiety at baseline than among those without. HYD provided stable and effective analgesia for 52 weeks among chronic pain patients with and without comorbid depression/anxiety at baseline.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
