O THER COMMON PHYSICAL SYMPTOMS

C ONSTIPATION Constipation is a common effect of all opioids Even OST with methadone or buprenorphine is complicated by side effect of constipation With continued use, patients usually develop tolerance to various side effects, except constipation Constipation is also associated with a serious negative effects on patients’ health-related quality of life Cause of constipation is multifactorial Opioids interfere with normal gastrointestinal motility Opioids stimulate the absorption of fluids

C ONSTIPATION Constipation can be prevented by opioid users by adopting some strategies Primary prevention strategies – Increased dietary fibre –Increased fluid intake –Adequate exercise –Adequate time and privacy for going to the toilet

C ONSTIPATION Pharmacological management Promotility and secreta- gogue agents that have efficacy in chronic idiopathic constipation Peripherally restricted μ- opiate receptor antagonists Methylnaltrexone Alvimopan

Pain management in drug users

A PPROPRIATE ACTIONS TO TREAT DRUG USERS IN ACUTE PAIN Determine the source of the pain Provide appropriate pain medication to relieve the symptoms; this may include opioids Analgesia should be prescribed on a regular basis. Additional flexibility for “breakthrough” pain may be required If the pain is persistent or the cause is unclear, check for underlying psychiatric problems or an undetected source of pain

A PPROPRIATE ACTIONS TO TREAT DRUG USERS IN ACUTE PAIN If opioids are used, opioid dependents require more and frequent doses of narcotic analgesics compared with non- dependents due to their tolerance In methadone-maintained patients receiving opioid analgesics, these should be given in addition to the daily maintenance dose of methadone (perhaps even at a higher dose) Taper the doses of narcotic analgesics slowly to avoid drug withdrawal

A PPROPRIATE ACTIONS TO TREAT DRUG USERS IN ACUTE PAIN Drugs commonly used for multimodal analgesia in acute pain include opioids, non-opioids, and a variety of adjuvant analgesics Combinations of analgesics are chosen based on a mechanistic approach that targets the pain pathway in both the peripheral and central nervous system The use of a multimodal approach for all stages of perioperative care including preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative transition periods

A PPROPRIATE ACTIONS TO TREAT DRUG USERS IN ACUTE PAIN Preoperative Calculate opioid dose requirement and modes of administration; provide anxiolytics or other medications as clinically indicated Intraoperative Maintain baseline opioids (oral, transdermal, intravenous). Increase intraoperative and postoperative opioid dose to compensate for tolerance Provide peripheral neural or plexus blockade; consider neuraxial analgesic techniques when clinically indicated Use nonopioids as analgesic adjuncts

A PPROPRIATE ACTIONS TO TREAT DRUG USERS IN ACUTE PAIN Postoperative Maintain baseline opioids Use multimodal analgesic techniques Patient-controlled analgesia: Use as primary therapy or as supplementation for epidural or regional techniques Continue neuraxial opioids: intrathecal or epidural analgesia Continue continuous neural blockade

Oral health

R ISK FACTORS FOR POOR ORAL HEALTH Poor dental health Tooth grinding (Bruxism) in Amphetamine type stimulant users Xerostomia is the reduced ability to produce saliva in the mouth. This is a side-effect of heroin or methadone and can contribute to tooth decay, enamel erosion, and periodontal disease Neglecting personal oral hygiene (e.g., poor brushing habits) High intake of sugars and refined carbohydrates (sugary cereals, and items made from white flour) contribute to poorer oral health Poor dental health is risk factor for complications such as increase the risk of bacteraemia and infective endocarditis

O RAL HEALTH IN HIV- POSITIVE DRUG USERS Candidiasis Oral hairy leukoplakia HIV-associated gingivitis HIV-associated periodontitis Necrotizing ulcerative gingivitis and gingivo-stomatitis Recurrent herpes simplex Bacterial glossitis Major aphthous ulcers Molluscum contagiosum Patchy depapillated tongue Hairy tongue Angular cheilitis

S UGGESTIONS TO RELIEVE DRY MOUTH Take frequent sips of water Chewing sugarless chewing gum helps stimulate salivary flow Keep a glass or bottle of water by your bed for sipping during the night or on awakening Drink frequently while eating Limit caffeine-containing coffee and tea
