Abstract
Fentanyl pectin nasal spray uses a novel pectin-based delivery system that turns from an aqueous solution into a gel when applied to mucosal surfaces, resulting in controlled absorption of fentanyl. Fentanyl pectin nasal spray is associated with a rapid onset of pain relief and a duration of action that matches the time course of a typical episode of breakthrough pain in cancer.
