Clinical Trials Related to Dihydrocodeine BPM Phenyleph (Dihydrocodeine / Brompheniramine / Phenylephrine)

Randomized Controlled Double Blind Trial of Short vs Long Acting Dihydrocodeine in Chronic Non-Malignant Pain [Recruiting]
We wish to compare the effect of long acting vs short acting opioids in chronic non-malignant pain. The study opioid is Dihydrocodeine Continus and Dihydrocodeine 30 mg tablets. We measure pain relief, health related quality of life, sleep, breakthrough pain and depression with validated questionaires to compare the two treatment arms.

Hypothesis: The painrelief will be better and more stable with long acting opioids. Quality of sleep, breakthrough pain and quality of life will also be improved with long acting dihydrocodeine.
