In FMS/CFS patients with an autoimmune prbblem, Mease has noticed that Plaquenil can sometimes help the FMS/CFS symptoms. This drug can cause toxicities in the
Conversion Factors: Hydromorphone, CF=1; Codeine, CF=0.06; Hydrocodone, CF=0.4; Oxycodone, CF=0.4; Methadone, CF=0.6; Morphine, CF=0.2, Oxymorphone, CF=0.6; NOTE: Product of dose and CF does not represent an equianalgesic dose and therefore should not be used to convert hydromorphone extended-release tablets to another opioid
To determine daily hydromorphone requirement: Sum total daily dose of prior oral opioid and multiply by oral conversion factor (CF), divide by 2 (to get 50%); round down if needed to available tablet strength; Conversion Factors: Hydromorphone, CF=1; Codeine, CF=0.06; Hydrocodone, CF=0.4; Oxycodone, CF=0.4; Methadone, CF=0.6; Morphine, CF=0.2
Approved Drug Being Tested for CF: Some CF clinical trials test drugs that the FDA already has approved for other uses. Cookie List. Consent Leg

This review seeks to re-introduce cystic fibrosis (CF) clinicians to the pharmacology of drug–drug interactions among medications commonly used in CF.
Anti-infectives: drugs that treat CF-related infections. Five antibiotics are currently approved for CF patients: azithromycin, inhaled
It spawned a new class of CF drugs called modulators that addressed the underlying problem in CF rather than merely treating the sequelae of CF.
Tramadol, CF=0.1; Oxycodone, CF=1; Methadone, CF= 1.5, Oxymorphone, CF=2; Hydromorphone, CF=4; Morphine, CF=0.5; Codeine, CF=0.15. These CFs cannot be used to convert from hydrocodone extended-release to the selected oral opioid as doing so will result in overestimation of the oral opioid dose and may result in fatal respiratory depression.
