Re: bowel obstruction?!?!
terminology question - moderate ileum? What's that?
Well, whatever it is, with all the loose stools, dysphagia, emeisis and the like she wont be taking or absorbing any meds, try and get her switched to subcutaneous where possible..
She will certainly need fluids of some sort - depends how 'aggressive' you want to be. Subcutanous fluids are good and work well.
levsin - not heard of that one, but buscopan works well.
Also octreotide subQ to help slow down intestinal juice secretion.
We find nozinan (6.25mg to 12.5mg) and haldol (0.5 to 1mg) really helps with nausea - both subQ
If she is terminal, bowel sound are not so important, really.
As for the loose stools, just lots of changes and barrier cream to stop excoration.
Good luck, I hope you help her.
