Some recent literature relevant to analgesia in palliative care is reviewed. Reports on clinical use of bisphosphonates for bone pain in cancer, controlled release opioids, selection of laxatives for opioid-induced constipation and the calcium channel blocker nifedipine as an analgesic are described.
