Opioid conversion

Common reasons for switching:

  • Current opioid not helping the pain
  • Current opioid causing toxic symptoms (hallucinations, twitching, sedation)
  • Need an alternative route eg a patch because of vomiting or poor swallow

ALWAYS check a conversion dose with a colleague, especially if unfamiliar with opioids

This Opioid dose conversion chart is from Royal United Hospitals Bath:
