Table 3 General Practitioners’ (GPs) (n=10) Rating on Credibility, Clarity, and Impact of Evidence in the Study, the Rating Scale Used Was 1 to 5, with 1= Poor and 5= Excellent
Figure 2 Consensus among GPs pertaining to the relevance of FD-APAP for pain management in the elderly and diabetic patient populations based on the feedback of their peers. Collective feedback from GPs for pain management in (A) elderly patients towards FD-APAP evidence credibility and impact, suitability of FD-APAP as a better alternative to NSAIDs, and key advantages of FD-APAP pertained to the faster disintegration and absorption of FD-APAP technology (OPTIZORB®) and (B) diabetic patients in terms of the relevance of FD-APAP and being able to address the need in patients with slower gastric emptying rate or GI changes, and the need to consider the complications or comorbidities associated with diabetes, while at the same time having minimal complications.

Table 4 Endocrinologists’ Rating on the Credibility, Clarity and Impact of the Evidence Shared for the Following Statements
Figure 3 Consensus among endocrinologists pertaining to the relevance of FD-APAP for mild-to-moderate pain management in the diabetic patient population based on the feedback of their peers. Collective consensus on (A) the evidence on FD-APAP relevance in diabetic population is credible, believable, and impactful; key advantages of FD-APAP pertained to the faster disintegration and absorption of FD-APAP technology (OPTIZORB®) and (B) There is good confidence around the relevance of FD-APAP for mild-to-moderate pain management, and being able to address the slower gastric emptying rates or GI changes in diabetic patients.
