6. Contents of the pack and other information

• You are allergic to fentanyl or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6)
• You have pain which lasts only for a short period or pain after having an operation because of the increased risk of dependence and developing serious breathing problems
• You have breathing difficulties, with slow or shallow breathing

Do not use this medicine if any of the above apply to you or your child. If you are not sure, talk to your doctor or pharmacist before using Durogesic DTrans.

• Durogesic DTrans can have life-threatening side effects in people who are not already regularly using prescribed opioid medicines.
• Durogesic DTrans is a medicine that could be life-threatening to children, even if the patches have been used. Bear in mind that a sticky patch (unused or used) could be tempting to a child and if it sticks to a child’s skin or they put it in their mouth, the result may be fatal.
• Store this medicine in a safe and secure place, where other people cannot access it - see section 5 for more information.

The patch should be used only on the skin of the person for whom it has been prescribed. There have been reports of patches accidentally sticking to a family member while in close physical contact or sharing the same bed as the person wearing the patch. A patch accidently sticking to another person (particularly a child) can cause the medicine in the patch to go through the skin of the other person and cause serious side effects such as breathing difficulties, with slow or shallow breathing which may be fatal. In case the patch sticks to the skin of another person, take the patch off right away and get medical attention.

Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before using this medicine if any of the following apply to you - your doctor may need to check you more closely if:

• You have ever had problems with your lungs or breathing
• You have ever had problems with your heart, liver, kidneys, or low blood pressure
• You have ever had a brain tumour
• You have ever had persistent headaches or a head injury
• You are elderly - you may be more sensitive to the effects of this medicine.
• You have a condition called ‘myasthenia gravis’ in which muscles become weak and tire easily.

If any of the above apply to you (or you are not sure), talk to your doctor or pharmacist before using Durogesic DTrans.

While using the patch, tell your doctor if you have breathing problems while sleeping. Opioids like Durogesic DTrans can cause sleep-related breathing disorders such as sleep apnoea (breathing pauses during sleep) and sleep-related hypoxaemia (low oxygen level in the blood). Tell your doctor if you, your partner or carer notice you have any of the following:

• breathing pauses during sleep
• night awakening due to shortness of breath
• difficulties staying asleep
• excessive drowsiness during the day.

Your doctor may decide to change your dose.

While using the patch, tell your doctor if you notice a change in the pain you are feeling. If you feel:

• your pain is no longer relieved by the patch
• an increase in pain
• there is a change in how you feel the pain (for example, you feel pain in another part of your body)
• pain when something touches your body that you wouldn’t expect to hurt you.

Do not change the dose yourself. Your doctor may decide to change your dose or treatment.

• Durogesic DTrans may make you unusually drowsy, and make your breathing more slow or shallow. Very rarely these breathing problems can be life-threatening or even fatal, especially in people who have not used strong opioid painkillers (like Durogesic DTrans or morphine) before. If you, or your partner or carer, notice that the person wearing the patch is unusually drowsy, with slow or shallow breathing:
  • Take the patch off
  • Call a doctor, or go to your nearest hospital straight away
  • Keep the person moving and talking as much as possible
• If you get a fever while using Durogesic DTrans, tell your doctor - this may increase the amount of medicine that passes through your skin
• Durogesic DTrans may cause constipation, talk to your doctor or pharmacist for advice on how to prevent or relieve constipation.

See section 4 for a full list of possible side effects.

DUROGESIC, like other opioids, may affect the normal production of hormones in the body such as cortisol, prolactin, or sex hormones, particularly if you have taken DUROGESIC for long periods of time. The effects of these hormonal changes may include feeling or being sick (including vomiting), loss of appetite, tiredness, weakness, dizziness, low blood pressure, infertility, or decreased sex drive. In addition, female patients may experience changes in menstrual cycle, while male patients may experience impotence or enlarged breasts. If you notice any of these signs, speak to your doctor.

When you are wearing the patch do not expose it to direct heat such as heating pads, electric blankets, hot-water bottles, heated water beds or heat or tanning lamps. Do not sunbathe, have long hot baths or saunas or use hot whirlpool spa baths. If you do, you may increase the amount of medicine you get from the patch.

This medicine contains fentanyl which is an opioid medicine. Repeated use of opioid painkillers can result in the drug being less effective (you become accustomed to it, known as drug tolerance). You may also become more sensitive to pain while using DUROGESIC. This is known as hyperalgesia. Increasing the dose of your patches may help to further reduce your pain for a while, but it may also be harmful. If you notice that your medicine becomes less effective, talk to your doctor. Your doctor will decide whether it is better for you to increase the dose or to gradually decrease your use of DUROGESIC.

Repeated use of DUROGESIC can also lead to dependence, abuse and addiction which may result in life-threatening overdose. The risk of these side effects can increase with a higher dose and longer duration of use. Dependence or addiction can make you feel that you are no longer in control of how much medicine you need to use or how often you need to use it. You might feel that you need to carry on using your medicine, even when it doesn’t help to relieve your pain.

The risk of becoming dependent or addicted varies from person to person. You may have a greater risk of becoming dependent or addicted on DUROGESIC if:

• You or anyone in your family have ever abused or been dependent on alcohol, prescription medicines or illegal drugs (“addiction”).
• You are a smoker.
• You have ever had problems with your mood (depression, anxiety or a personality disorder) or have been treated by a psychiatrist for other mental illness.

If you notice any of the following signs whilst using DUROGESIC, it could be a sign that you have become dependent or addicted.

• You need to use the medicine for longer than advised by your doctor.
• You need to use more than the recommended dose.
• You are using the medicine for reasons other than prescribed, for instance, ‘to stay calm’ or ‘help you sleep’.
• You have made repeated, unsuccessful attempts to quit or control the use of the medicine.
• When you stop taking the medicine you feel unwell, and you feel better once using the medicine again (‘withdrawal effects’).

If you notice any of these signs, speak to your doctor to discuss the best treatment pathway for you, including when it is appropriate to stop and how to stop safely.

Do not suddenly stop taking this medicine. Withdrawal symptoms such as restlessness, difficulty sleeping, irritability, agitation, anxiety, feeling your heartbeat (palpitations), increased blood pressure, feeling or being sick, diarrhoea, loss of appetite, shaking, shivering or sweating may occur. If you want to stop taking this medicine, talk to your doctor first. Your doctor will tell you how to do this, usually by reducing the dose gradually so that any unpleasant withdrawal effects are kept to a minimum.

Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken or might take any other medicines. This includes medicines that you buy without a prescription or herbal medicines. You should also tell your pharmacist that you are using Durogesic DTrans if you buy any medicines from your pharmacy.

Your doctor will know which medicines are safe to take with Durogesic DTrans. You may need to be closely monitored if you are taking some of the types of medicines listed below or if you stop taking some of the types of medicines listed below, as this may affect the strength of Durogesic DTrans you need.

In particular, tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking:

• Other medicines for pain, such as other opioid painkillers (such as buprenorphine, nalbuphine, or pentazocine) and some painkillers for nerve pain (gabapentin and pregabalin).
• Medicines for helping you sleep (such as temazepam, zaleplon, or zolpidem).
• Medicines to help you calm down (tranquillisers, such as alprazolam, clonazepam, diazepam, hydroxyzine, or lorazepam) and medicines for mental conditions (anti-psychotics, such as aripiprazole, haloperidol, olanzapine, risperidone, or phenothiazines).
• Medicines for relaxing your muscles (such as cyclobenzaprine or diazepam).
• Some medicines used to treat depression called SSRIs or SNRIs (such as citalopram, duloxetine, escitalopram, fluoxetine, fluvoxamine, paroxetine, sertraline, or venlafaxine) – see below for more information
• Some medicines used to treat depression or Parkinson’s disease called MAOIs (such as isocarboxazid, phenelzine, selegiline, or tranylcypromine). You should not take Durogesic DTrans within 14 days of stopping these medicines – see below for more information
• Some antihistamines, especially ones that make you sleepy (such as chlorpheniramine, clemastine, cyproheptadine, diphenhydramine, or hydroxyzine).
• Some antibiotics used to treat infection (such as erythromycin or clarithromycin).
• Medicines used to treat fungal infection (such as itraconazole, ketoconazole, fluconazole, or voriconazole).
• Medicines used to treat HIV infection (such as ritonavir).
• Medicines used to treat an irregular heart beat (such as amiodarone, diltiazem, or verapamil).
• Medicines to treat tuberculosis (such as rifampicin).
• Some medicines used to treat epilepsy (such as carbamazepine, phenobarbital, or phenytoin).
• Some medicines used to treat nausea or motion sickness (such as phenothiazines).
• Some medicines used to treat heartburn or ulcers (such as cimetidine).
• Some medicines used to treat angina (chest pain) or high blood pressure (such as nicardipine).
• Some medicines used to treat cancer of the blood (such as idelalisib).

The risk of side effects increases if you are taking medicines such as certain antidepressants.

Durogesic DTrans may interact with these medicines and you may experience changes to mental status such as feeling agitated, seeing, feeling, hearing, or smelling things that are not there (hallucinations) and other effects such as changing blood pressure, fast heart beat, high body temperature, overactive reflexes, lack of coordination, muscle stiffness, nausea, vomitting and diarrhoea. (these could be signs of Serotonin Syndrome). If used together, your doctor may want to closely monitor you for such side effects in particular when starting treatment or when the dose of your medicine is changed.

Concomitant use of Durogesic DTrans and sedative medicines such as benzodiazepines or related drugs increases the risk of drowsiness, difficulties in breathing (respiratory depression), coma and may be life-threatening. Because of this, concomitant use should only be considered when other treatment options are not possible.

However if your doctor does prescribe Durogesic DTrans together with sedative medicines the dose and duration of concomitant treatment should be limited by your doctor.

Please tell your doctor about all sedative medicines you are taking, and follow your doctor’s dose recommendation closely. It could be helpful to inform friends or relatives to be aware of the signs and symptoms stated above. Contact your doctor when experiencing such symptoms.

Do not drink alcohol while using Durogesic DTrans unless you have talked to your doctor first.

If you are going to have an operation, or have just had an operation, please tell the doctor at the hospital if you are currently treated with Durogesic DTrans transdermal patch to discuss your pain management.

If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, think you may be pregnant or are planning to have a baby, ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice before taking this medicine.

Durogesic DTrans should not be used during pregnancy unless you have discussed this with your doctor.

Durogesic DTrans should not be used during childbirth as the medication can affect the breathing of the newborn child.

Prolonged use of Durogesic DTrans during pregnancy can cause withdrawal symptoms (such as high-pitched cry, jitteriness, fits, poor feeding and diarrhoea) in your newborn baby that could be life-threatening if not recognised and treated. Talk to your doctor immediately if you think your baby may have withdrawal symptoms.

Do not use Durogesic DTrans if you are breastfeeding. You should not breastfeed for 3 days after removing your Durogesic DTrans patch. This is because the medicine may pass into breast milk.

Durogesic DTrans can affect your ability to drive and use machines or tools as it may make you sleepy or dizzy. If this happens, do not drive or use any tools or machines.

• Do not drive while taking this medicine until you know how it affects you.
• It is an offence to drive if this medicine affects your ability to drive.
• However, you would not be committing an offence if:
  • The medicine has been prescribed to treat a medical or dental problem and
  • You have taken it according to the instructions given by the prescriber or in the information provided with the medicine and
  • It was not affecting your ability to drive safely

Talk to your doctor or pharmacist if you are not sure whether it is safe for you to drive while taking this medicine.

• There is enough medicine in each patch to last 3 days (72 hours).

Friday Monday

Saturday Tuesday

Sunday Wednesday

Adults

• Apply the patch on a flat part of your upper body or arm (not over a joint).

Children

• Always apply the patch to the upper back to make it difficult for your child to reach it or take it off.
• Every so often check that the patch remains stuck to the skin.
• It is important that your child does not remove the patch and put it in their mouth as this could be life-threatening or even fatal.
• Watch your child very closely for 48 hours after:
  • The first patch has been put on
  • A higher dose patch has been put on
• It may take some time for the patch to have its maximum effect. Therefore, your child might need to use other painkillers as well until the patches become effective. Your doctor will talk to you about this.

Adults and Children:

Do not apply the patch on

• The same place twice in a row.
• Areas that you move a lot (joints), skin that is irritated or with cuts.
• Skin that is very hairy. If there is hair, do not shave it (shaving irritates the skin). Instead, clip the hair as close to the skin as possible.

Step 1: Preparing the skin

• Make sure your skin is completely dry, clean and cool before you put the patch on
• If you need to clean the skin, just use cold water
• Do not use soap or any other cleansers, creams, moisturisers, oils or talc before applying the patch
• Do not stick a patch on straight after a hot bath or shower

Step 2: Open the sachet

• Each patch is sealed in its own sachet
• Tear or cut open the sachet at the notch, shown by the arrow
• Gently tear or cut off the edge of the sachet completely (if you use scissors, cut close to the sealed edge of the sachet to avoid damaging the patch)

• Grasp both sides of the opened sachet and pull apart
• Take the patch out and use straight away
• Keep the empty sachet to dispose of the used patch later
• Use each patch once only
• Do not take the patch out of its sachet until you are ready to use it
• Inspect the patch for any damage
• Do not use the patch if it has been divided, cut or looks damaged
• Never divide or cut the patch

Step 3: Peel and press

• Make sure that the patch will be covered by loose clothing and not stuck under a tight or elasticated band
• Carefully peel one half of the shiny plastic backing away from the centre of the patch. Try not to touch the sticky side of the patch
• Press this sticky part of the patch onto the skin
• Remove the other part of the backing and press the whole patch onto the skin with the palm of your hand
• Hold for at least 30 seconds. Make sure it sticks well, especially the edges

Step 4: Disposing of the patch

• As soon as you take a patch off, fold it firmly in half so that the sticky side sticks to itself
• Put it back in its original sachet and dispose of the sachet as instructed by your pharmacist
• Keep used patches out of sight and reach of children – even used patches contain some medicine that may harm children and may even be fatal

Step 5: Wash

• Always wash your hands after you have handled the patch using clean water only

Everyday activities while using the patches

• The patches are waterproof
• You can shower or bathe while wearing a patch, but do not scrub the patch itself
• If your doctor agrees, you can exercise or play sport while wearing the patch
• You can also swim while wearing the patch, but:
  • Don’t use hot whirlpool spa baths
  • Don’t put a tight or elasticated band over the patch
• While you are wearing the patch do not expose it to direct heat such as heating pads, electric blankets, hot-water bottles, heated water beds, heat or tanning lamps. Do no sunbathe, have long hot baths or saunas. If you do, you may increase the amount of medicine you get from the patch.

How quickly will the patches work?

• It may take some time for your first patch to have its maximum effect.
• Your doctor may give you other painkillers as well for the first day or so
• After this, the patch should help to relieve pain continuously so that you can stop taking other painkillers. However, your doctor may still prescribe extra painkillers from time to time

How long will you use the patches for?

• Durogesic DTrans patches are for long-term pain. Your doctor will be able to tell you how long you can expect to use the patches

If your pain gets worse

• If your pain suddenly gets worse after placing your last patch you should check your patch. If it is no longer sticking well or has fallen off you should replace the patch (See also section If a patch falls off)
• If your pain gets worse over time while you are using these patches, your doctor may try a higher strength patch, or give you additional painkillers (or both)
• If increasing the strength of the patch does not help, your doctor may decide to stop the use of the patches

If you use too many patches or the wrong strength patch

If you have stuck on too many patches or the wrong strength patch, take the patches off and contact a doctor straight away.

Signs of overdose include trouble breathing or shallow breathing, tiredness, extreme sleepiness, being unable to think clearly, walk or talk normally and feeling faint, dizzy or confused. An overdose may also result in a brain disorder known as toxic leukoencephalopathy.

If you forget to change your patch

• If you forget, change your patch as soon as you remember and make note of the day and time. Change the patch again after 3 days (72 hours) as usual.
• If you are very late changing your patch, you should talk to your doctor because you might need some extra painkillers, but do not apply an extra patch.

If a patch falls off

• If a patch falls off before it needs changing, stick a new one on straight away and make note of the day and time. Use a new area of skin on:
  • Your upper body or arm
  • Your child’s upper back
• Let your doctor know this has happened and leave the patch on for another 3 days (72 hours) or as directed by your doctor, before changing the new patch as usual
• If your patches keep falling off, talk to your doctor, pharmacist or nurse

If you want to stop using the patches

• Do not suddenly stop taking this medicine. If you want to stop taking this medicine, talk to your doctor first. Your doctor will tell you how to do this, usually by reducing the dose gradually so that any unpleasant withdrawal effects are kept to a minimum. See also section 2 ‘Withdrawal symptoms when stopping Durogesic DTrans’.
• If you stop using the patches, don’t start again without asking your doctor first. You might need a different patch strength when you restart.

Repeated use of the patches can make the medicine become less effective (you get used to it or you may become more sensitive to pain), or you can become dependent on it.

If you switch from a different painkiller to Durogesic DTrans or if you suddenly stop using Durogesic DTrans, you may notice withdrawal effects such as sickness, feeling sick, diarrhoea, anxiety or shivering. Tell your doctor if you notice any of these effects.

There have been reports also of newborn infants experiencing withdrawal effects after their mothers have used Durogesic DTrans for a long time during pregnancy.

If you get any side effects, talk to your doctor, pharmacist or nurse. This includes any possible side effects not listed in this leaflet.
