The Common Etiologies of Oropharyngeal Dysphagia

The common buckets then for oral pharyngeal dysphagia, we have the structural ENT type issues. Neurologic things like Parkinson's, myasthenia gravis, and other myopathies can do that as well. We're trying to study this more prospectively, but our retrospective data does show that potentially weaning the dose to reduce the morphine equivalents or weaning them off may help. But we don't have any reversal agents for opioid induced esophageal dysfunction like we do for constipation.
