Abstract:
Short acting oral formulas make part of optimal opioid analgesia. The use of short acting oral morphine has not widely spread in Hungary, and these drugs completely lacked from the market for three years. Since December 2015 short acting morphine-sulphate has again been commercialised. The causes of the market failure are analysed in this article. The aim of the retrospective analysis is to help the accessibility of the medicine to every patient in need. Prescription morphine use depends on the harmonised cooperation of a number of actors. Besides regulating and financing authorities and professional organisations, patients and the opinion forming media are also responsible for building up the right routine.
