Hi there,
In hospitals and clinics the usual amount of Morphine provided to intolerant patients ranges between 10 - 30 mg IV or IM as required. If the patient suffered severe trauma and medical history is unavailable, a tiny amount may be injected under the skin to exclude the presence of a Morphine allergy in which case even low dosages can be lethal. Since you are referring to time release tablets I assume you refer to oral consumption. Bio-availability of Morphine is much lower when taken orally which means 30 mg time released is a pretty low dosage although I would not recommend taking more if you are not sure how it affects you. I am a chronic pain patient myself and have been taking Hydrocodone and Oxycontin tablets in the past, and when I ran out of medication one day, it required the use of 140 mg Morphine IV just to make withdrawal symptoms disappear. It is noteworthy that I had developed a huge tolerance and that this is suicide for anyone with only a low or even average tolerance. Wikipedia claims that the LD50 of IV Morphine is around 70 mg (Lethal Dose 50% = dosage at which half of all test subjects suffer lethal overdoses). Keep in mind that appropriate dosage further depends on body weight and sensibility as some people naturally seem to have a very high natural tolerance for this prescription drug (including myself).
Warm Regards,

No they are both opiates
Yes. A generic drug for morphine is your mum.
It is pain medication. Morphine sulfate, immediate release.
what does SR mean on morphine 60mg pills
You get many small granules of morphine sulfate.
Usually you will hear morphine sulfate referred to as MS Contin
Morphine sulfate in liquid is mostly water. If left to evaporate, the water will go, leaving morphine sulfate as a residue.
It is an Oxycodone..but there are MS Contin, Morphine Sulfate, that look the same, but the MS Contin are darker and have a hard coating around them so that the Morphine releases into your system slower..

Nothing, they do not react
$10 a drop for morphine
Yes. The only difference in these drugs is how they are prepared so that they release either immediately or over a sustained period of time. They are both morphine sulfate.
