If the level of pain increases after dose stabilization, attempt to identify the source of increased pain before increasing the BUTRANS dose. Because steady-state plasma concentrations are achieved within 72 hours, BUTRANS dosage may be adjusted every 3 days. Dose adjustments may be made in 5 mcg/hour, 7.5 mcg/hour, or 10 mcg/hour increments by using no more than two patches of the 5 mcg/hour, or 7.5 mcg/hour, or 10 mcg/hour system(s).
The duration for which the drug needs to be held prior to a procedure depends. on renal function and risk of bleeding during the procedure. CrCl > 50 ml/min â discontinue dabigatran at least 24 hours prior to the. procedure, but if high risk for bleeding (major surgery) stop 2 â 4 days prior. CrCl 50-30 ml/min â stop 48 hours prior to the procedure, if high risk for. bleeding stop for 4 days. CrCl < 30 - hold drug for 2 â 5 days and > 5 days for high risk bleeding. In patients at high risk of bleeding a thrombin time can be checked 6 â 12 hours. prior to surgery â if normal there is no dabigatran present.
