Among patients with lung cancer, those having PS 4 ( Performance Status 4) and
cancer pain
received " Pyrecon ", a psychotropic agent, consisting of promethazine hydrochloride (
Pyrethia
) and chlorpromazine hydrochloride ( Contomin ). A mixture of 125 mg of
Pyrethia
and 50 mg of Contomin was diluted in 500 ml of regular IV solution and given through the central vein at a rate of 20 ml/hr. Pyrecon was found to be effective in patients with severe

cancer pain
