Dr. Iddon: To ask the Secretary of State for Health if he has made recommendations on dosages of Diamorphine that can be given to
patients suffering from a terminal condition. [87990]
Ms Jowell: In June 1998 the Department endorsed and distributed throughout the National Health Service three documents of good
practice in palliative care, produced by the National Council for Hospice and Specialist Palliative Care Services. One of these
documents was "Guidelines for Managing Cancer Pain in Adults", which was designed for use by health professionals in primary care
and institutional settings and includes guidance on dosages of Diamorphine for terminally ill patients. Copies are available in the
Library.
