I've never used Actiq, all of it's effects are similiar to all narcotic pain medications.
Behaviour/mood - relaxed, euphoria, sedation
symptoms - sedation, sometimes hyper activity, pupil miosis (constriction), sometimes loss of apetite, libido, ED, constipation
OD - sedation, unconciousness, sweating, slurring, stupor
W/D - diarrhea, flu symptoms i.e runny nose, aches/pains, etc. cravings, chills, RLS.

This is difficult to answer without knowing anything about the patient.An opiate tolerant patient reacts quite differently to opiates then a non-tolerant patient.More info is needed to make a educated call on this post......Dave
