2mg hydromorphone is equivalent to about 5-6mg oxycodone. Hydromorphone is more for the milligram but 6mg Oxycontin will probably produce a stronger high than 2mg hydromorphone. Or at least it has in my experience.
Generally speaking, hydromorphone, brand name dilaudid amongst others, is in fact stronger mg to mg than oxycodone (on theory), especially as hydromorphone is said to be 6-8 times the strength of morphine. But with that high a dose of oxycodone, I'd say the oxy would be stronger given its at such a high mg. However, if the hydromorphone was at a higher level say 10-20 mg, or even 4-6 mg IV push, the hydromorphone would definitely trump that oxy. But remember, each person is different and some people react better to certain drugs as opposed to others, regardless of FDA conversion strength equivalency ratios.
Yes, approximately 3-4 times stronger
Hydromorphone is between 5 and 8 times stronger than morphine

Hydrocodone is Vicodin with Tylenol. Hydromorphone (aka Dilaudid) is straight Hydromorphone. No Tylenol or any other OTC meds mixed in. Obviously, Hydromorphone is much stronger. It is said that it is stronger than Oxycontin.
Hydromorphone(Diluadid) is a stronger narcotic pain reducer than Tylox(Oxycodone+Tylenol), however effecets will differ from one patient to another. Hydromorphone is 4 times stronger than a similar size dose of morphine, but is actually better at preventing serious pain than relieving it. The drug should be taken on a regular schedule, before your worst pain starts, at the same times every day. It is not a good drug for short term use. Tylox is a quick release percocet and is better at relieving serious pain in a short amount of time, but it will where off quicker and is very addictive.
Lortab and Vicodin are both forms of hydrocodone. Oxycontin is the controlled-release form of oxycodone. Oxycodone is stronger than hydrocodone.
No, they're both strong opiates (hydromorphone or Dilaudid is up to 10x stronger than morphine and 3x stronger than heroin). If you took both you would probably overdose if you did not have a built up tolerance to opiates.
