Non-opioid analgesics have broad applications in the treatment of pain. In the hospital, they are used for the management of post-operative and cancer pain. For these indications, the antipyretic analgesics dipyrone and paracetamol offer advantages over the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, particularly with regard to safety and tolerability. This text is an overview of the use of non-opioid analgesics in the management of post-operative and cancer pain. A chapter on the safety of non-opioids highlights differences in the risks associated with the use of different members of this class of analgesics.
