For continuous delivery, fentanyl is administered through a transdermal patch that adheres to the skin. The patch works by slowly releasing fentanyl through the skin into the bloodstream over 20–72 hours.

They have the potential to provide more gradual rises in maximal plasma concentration (C max) and to prolong the time to C max (t max), thus avoiding the rapid rise and fall of concentrations seen with oral therapies. 16 Consequently, drug levels may be maintained within the theoretical optimal ‘therapeutic window’, with smaller fluctuations between peaks and troughs that may be associated with side effects and reduced efficacy, respectively. 16,17 Bioavailability following transdermal administration has repeatedly been shown to be greater than with oral delivery for some drugs. 18 A drug released across the skin directly into the bloodstream is free from interactions in the gastrointestinal tract and bypasses first-pass metabolism in the liver. In the case of rivastigmine, pharmacokinetic data have shown that drug exposure in the brain over 24 hours with the target-dose patch (9.5mg/ 24-hour), despite being lower at face value, is comparable to that provided by 12mg/day capsules. 19 The pharmacokinetic rationale and clinical data supporting the development of the rivastigmine patch is discussed in more detail by Frölich elsewhere in this issue of European Neurological Review. 20 As someone’s condition gets worse and they are within a few days or hours of dying, further changes are common.

Dementia - Patient Medication and Treatment for Dementia - Patient

In Alzheimer's, proteins called amyloid and tau build up in the brain to form deposits called 'plaques' and 'tangles'. Damage happens to the brain in these areas, and this affects the chemicals in the brain which transmitmessages from one cell to In Vascular dementia, your GP may suggest taking medication if you have high blood pressure, raised cholesterol or diabetes. It is also helpful to stop smoking, eat healthily and take regular exercise. For a few weeks, he has started, in the evenings, to see a child playing silently in the corner of the room. He offered him something to eat one night, but then realised his daughter could not see the child. Cath feels that he is getting worse at remembering dates and planning his jobs around the house. Risperidone also works on other neurotransmitters such as serotonin and noradrenaline. These are believed to control mood.Schneider LS, Anand R, Farlow MR, Systematic review of the efficacy of rivastigmine for patients with Alzheimer’s disease, Int J Geriatr Psychopharmacol, 1998;1(Suppl. 1):S26–34. Older people are more likely than younger individuals to experience adverse effects, especially the respiratory depressant effects of fentanyl. Healthcare professionals must exercise extreme caution and regularly monitor people in this age group.
