With the information give you can't calculate the amount. Morphine comes in different concentrations IE 30mg / ml or 60mg / ml oral and more, it also come in different strength in the injection form. Without the concentration you can't calculate the dose. Wayne L Doctor of Pharmacy
70 ml of morphine
The strength of Morphine depends on the concentration of the drug. If 6 mg Morphine is the prescribed strength, a little over 1/2 a cc of Morphine 10 mg needs to be administered. Morphine is supplied in 5 mg/ml and 10 mg/ml ampules. CW: For water, a cc is (just about) a mg. For stuff dissolved in water, a cc is about a mg. For Hg, doesn't hold.
Orally, 10mg of oxycodone is considered equivalent to 15mg or morphine sulfate but everyone is different. Oxycodone isn't usually used medically by injection so a conversion is unavailable. 5mg morphine by injection is equal to about 15mg of oral morphine. 5mg morphine is probably about equal to 5mg oxycodone by injection. So orally, oxy. is stronger!
To determine how many grams of morphine are in 0.05 mL of liquid morphine, you need to know the concentration of the liquid morphine, which is typically expressed in mg/mL. For example, if the concentration is 10 mg/mL, then 0.05 mL would contain 0.05 mL × 10 mg/mL = 0.5 mg of morphine. Since there are 1000 mg in a gram, 0.5 mg is equal to 0.0005 grams of morphine. The specific conversion depends on the concentration of the liquid morphine used.
Embeda is a combination medication that contains morphine and naltrexone. The morphine component provides pain relief, while the naltrexone is included to deter misuse. In terms of strength, morphine is a potent opioid on its own, but the overall effectiveness of Embeda can vary depending on individual factors such as dosage and the presence of naltrexone. Therefore, comparing strength directly depends on the specific context of use and the formulation.
Noop. Although they are both in the same class, Opiate, they are very different. Codeine is roughly 1/10th the efficacy (strength) of morphine. Fentanyl is 50--100 times the efficacy (strength) of morphine. So, Fentanyl is 500--1000 times the efficacy (or strength) as codeine.
approximately 200mg codeine for similar effects to 30mg oral morphine (not IV!)
30 mg of Morphine IR is equal to approximately 8 mg of Diluadid, so there is about a 4mg morphine to 1 mg of dilaudid ratio. So 45 mg of morphine would be equal to 5.6 mg of dilaudid. To answer your question, 45 mg of Morphine IR would stronger than taking the 4 mg of dilaudid.
It could be that your body does not allow morphine to inhibit the neurotransmitters (impulses in the brain) responsible for pain. Your doctor may need to place you on something different. It could also be that the strength of the morphine was insufficient to alleviate the pain.
The concentration of morphine can vary, so it's important to know the specific concentration of the morphine solution. However, for a standard concentration of 1 mg/mL, 2 mg of morphine would be equal to 2 mL.
No. 80mg equals .08 grams
