Trial tests opioid spray to ease the gasp for air in severe COPD
NCT ID NCT04004117
Summary
This study is testing if a very low dose of fentanyl, given as a spray under the tongue, can help people with severe COPD breathe easier during exercise. It will involve about 40 participants who still struggle with breathlessness despite taking standard medications, including low-dose morphine. The goal is to see if this treatment can improve exercise capacity and make breathing feel less difficult.
