Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: To compare the economic effects of MS Contin and oxycontin in treatment of cancer pain. METHODS: 120 patients with cancer pain were divided into GroupA1(30 cases),GroupA2 (30 cases),GroupB1 (30 cases) and GroupB2(30 cases). GroupA1 and GroupA2 were received MS Contin via p.o. for 15 days while GroupB1 and GroupB2 oxycontin via p.o. for 15 days. Pharmacoeconomics was applied in costeffectiveness analysis. RESULTS: Effective rates of GroupA1,GroupA2,GroupB1 and GroupB2 were 70.00%,83.33%,96.67% and 90.00%. The costeffectiveness ratios were 385.71,324.01, 284.58 and 305.67,respectively.The incremental costeffectiveness ratios of GroupB1 and GroupB2 were 19.12 and 25.50,respectively as comparing with GroupA1. CONCLUSION: Therapy of GroupB1 is optimal among 4 schemes based on the curative effect or costeffectiveness analysis.
