Educational objective: Mild to moderate cancer-related pain can usually be managed with nonopioid analgesics. However, if initial interventions are not effective, intermittent doses of short-acting opioids should be offered. If the pain requires frequent dosing or if bedtime dosing does not provide relief through the night, a long-acting opioid may be added.
