Resumen

Actualmente los opioides son el soporte del manejo farmacológico, en particular del dolor moderado a severo. En este sentido, es importante disponer de distintas formulaciones y vías de administración, aún más en el contexto del paciente oncológico. La buprenorfina tiene un bajo peso molecular, de alta potencia y liposolubilidad combinada a una favorable tolerabilidad y un bajo potencial de abuso. Por dichas razones la buprenorfina es ideal para aplicación transdérmica. La evidencia clínica disponible demuestra eficacia y seguridad en el empleo de la buprenorfina transdérmica en el tratamiento de dolor de moderado a severo en el paciente oncológico. Sin embargo, la buprenorfina no ha sido extensamente estudiada en ciertas poblaciones como otros opioides y se requieren nuevas investigaciones para definir el rol de esta en circunstancias clínicas específicas.

Palabras clave:
dolor oncológico
buprenorfina transdérmica
opioide
Abstract

Opiods are the current pharmalogical remedies of choice for the control of moderate to severe pain. Subsequently, it is important to rely on a number of prescriptions and applications for these drugs, particularly in the case of oncological patients. Low molecular weight, high potency and liposolubility of buprenorphine combine with its favorable tolerance and low abuse probability. Clinical evidence reveals that the use of transdermal buprenorphine in the treatment of moderate to severe pain in oncological patients is effective and safe. However, buprenorphine has not been widely studied among certain populations, as have other opiods, thus making further research necessary in order to define its role under specific clinical circumstances.

Key words:
Oncological pain
