<-----complete idiot status proven.I obviously know better than you, you fucking sheep fucking moron. It is what I have been saying all along. But, you want to jump in when clearly you don't know what you are talking about and you keep embarrassing yourself. You are reminding me of Deshtard.
ILA choses not to acknowledge qualifiers such as "when appropriately titrated", I would be surprised if he knows what "titrated" means.
Actually I know quite a bit about cancer pain. I know quite a bit about the psychology of treating pain.
Now here is a news flash sparky. There is no maximum dose of morphine. You can keep titrating a patients dosage until their pain is controlled or the side effects are intolerable. You are ignorant of the ways of pain management and unfortunately many physicians are as well.
Oh don't be so judgmental Desh.ILA is just a terrible human being
<-----complete idiot status proven.
obviously you don't understand what "When properly titrated" means.
All I can tell you is that in medical application if you exceed the end point of a titration you are probably in deep, deep trouble! LOL LOL LOLILA choses not to acknowledge qualifiers such as "when appropriately titrated", I would be surprised if he knows what "titrated" means.
Well we established that you don't understand what "titrated" means. Now you have established you don't understand what "ranges" means. LOL LOL LOLSee post #56 dumbass. I know you are trying to cover your embarrassment. Tell us again how the maximum dose of morphine is 250mg? The FDA would disagree with you. But, I guess you and your little biology major knows more than the FDA?

You're a pitbull ILA. I'll give you credit there. You just won't let go! LOL LOL LOL

You want a link? Go check a Merck Index for morphine sulfate. It's standard reference book data dude. While you're there check out dose response curve and LD50.BTW. I have provided links to back up what I am saying. You have not. Just sayin
Clearly you are completely ignorant of the kind of pain that cancer can cause, or when "too much morphine" means "Oh, the doctor killed him by overdosing him."
Isn't that what you want to stop? Someone killing something else?
So you suggest that someone in pain should be given more morphine to the point that it kills them. That's your answer.
You complete idiot.

Sometimes I wonder why I bother, but here. Don't believe me. Here is a link for you

From the link. Which is EXACTLY what I said. I will accept apologies throughout the day
When using single-agent opioid preparations (noncombination products), there is no maximum dose when appropriately titrated. The dose should be slowly escalated until adequate pain relief is seen or side effects preclude further escalation.
More uninformed claptrap. There is a difference between an OVERDOSE and a MAXIMUM dose. Of course you can overdose on morphine. I never implied or stated that you couldn't. What I said is that there is not a MAXIMUM dose. You can keep titrating the dose upwards until you get the desired clinical effect.
Obviously if I give you 500 mg of morphine right now (assuming you are opioid naive) it would most assuredly kill you and that would be an overdose.
However, if you are being treated for pain then it is very conceivable to be able to titrate your dose up to 500 mg and it will not kill you.
If you don't get the difference, then there is no helping you. It is why you deserve to be in pain and you should kill yourself now. If you are so intent on being assisted in killing yourself, I suggest you assault George Zimmerman. It will be quick
Wow, you are an ignorant man. Being ignorant of medicine or an area of knowledge is not uncommon or bad, but when you think you know a lot about something you are ignorant of, it leads to a political ideology such as yours.
Death is the result of exceeding the maximum dose of Morphine.
