The pulmonic valve is the second valve of the heart. Like the aortic valve, it is also referred to as a semilunar valve, because of its shape. It lies between the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery, which takes blood to the lungs.
Fentanyl is an opioid with rapid onset of pain relief; it is often used to treat breakthrough pain. Duragesic and similar patches release fentanyl through the skin. A patch may provide pain relief for up to 72 hours. Several deaths or life-threatening overdoses have been linked to misuse of fentanyl patches.
What is Neupro Patch? Neupro is a brand name for rotigotine, a dopamine agonist drug delivered slowly across the skin by means of a transdermal patch, worn for 24 hrs at a time. The aim is to provide a slow, steady stream of dopamine in order to reduce symptoms and on/off fluctuations experienced in Parkinson's disease.
