Alvimopan for postoperative ileus
American Journal of Health-System Pharmacy, 07/08/09
Bream-Rouwenhorst HR et al. - Alvimopan, a peripherally acting µ-opioid receptor antagonist, is a novel agent for the treatment of postoperative ileus. It appears to decrease the duration of postoperative ileus and hospitalization by approximately one day, theoretically offsetting its acquisition costs. Unresolved long-term safety issues, a limited indication, and its restricted-access program are likely to hinder its widespread use in the surgical population.
