List of terms related to Breakthrough cancer pain


Most cancer patients will, from time to time, experience pain which is normally treated by pain medications. Pain which lasts for up to 12 hours a day is called persistent cancer pain, and this, too, can be treated, with stronger pain relievers.

However, from time to time, a patient will experience BTCP, or Breakthrough cancer pain, in which the pain "breaks through" the normal doses of pain treatments. Such pain usually strikes without warning.
