Review article : Opioid analgesics in the management of pain in patients with cancer: an update

DJ Gorman

Calvary Hospital, Kogarah, NSW, Australia

The principles of pain control in cancer have not changed over the past four years, but our understanding of opioids has increased in many areas. This update reviews recent developments and new knowledge in morphine pharmacokinetics, new and established opioids, opioid actions and routes of opioid administration, including spinal routes.

Key Words: adverse effects • analgesia • pain • morphine • opioids • palliative treatment
