Pharmacokinetics of oxycodone/naloxone and its metabolites in patients with end-stage renal disease during and between haemodialysis sessions

Abstract: Oxycodone is removed during haemodialysis. The pharmacokinetics including the relatively short half-life of oxycodone in patients with ESRD with or without haemodialysis and the absence of unconjugated active metabolites indicate that oxycodone can be used at usual doses in patients requiring dialysis.

“…Patients with renal and hepatic function deterioration are more prone to oxycodone accumulation and adverse events in chronic use. However, recent data indicate that the PK parameters for a single dose of CR oxycodone-naloxone tablets in patients with end-stage renal disease are similar to those reported in subjects with normal renal function [53].…”

“…There are some recent examples in the literature where this impact on PKs was characterized for various drugs or drug combinations. 29 , 30 , 31 In addition, the FDA guidance 8 describes the need and approach for evaluating the PKs of critical care medications likely to be used in patients on continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). The findings from the IHD studies may not be sufficient for patients on CRRT and hence may require a specific study and study design.…”

“…Thus, naturally occurring opioids should be avoided and only semi‐synthetic or synthetic opioids should be prescribed. Although oxycodone is metabolized by the liver into active metabolites which may accumulate in ESKD, it may be used cautiously in these patients; however, sustained‐release formulations should be avoided due to the risk of accumulation and toxicity 68 . Buprenorphine has a lower risk profile and could be substituted, using split dosing every 6 hours or a continuous transdermal patch 69…”

“…This includes considering offering naloxone, an opioid antagonist, when risk factors for opioid overdose such as history of overdose, history of substance use disorder, higher opioid dosages (≥50 MME/d), or concurrent benzodiazepine use, are present 63 . Naloxone is not dialyzed out and does not need dose adjustment in ESKD 68 . Dialysis units should stock naloxone and dialysis staff should be trained how and when to use it.…”
