Hydromorphone (Dilaudid) is much more potent than hydrocodone (Vicodin). Potency wise, hydromorphone is roughly 7-8 times stronger than hydrocodone when administered IV, and almost as much stronger when taken orally. Hydromorphone comes in short acting preparations (Dilaudid) only. For a brief time there was a long acting preparation on the market that was pulled back when it was learned that, when taken with alcohol, the long-acting mechanism broke down causing all the med to be released into the bloodstream at once. In some cases the results were fatal.

∙ 13y agoHydrocodone is much weaker than Hydromorphone.
Hydrocodone is found in narcotics such as Vicodin, Lortab, and Norco. Hydromorphone is typically only used in a very strong narcotic called Dilaudid, which is rarely prescribed due to its high potential of abuse. Most people just crush it up and shoot it, which I definitely dont recommend. If you're considering using narcotics, stay away... but if you absolutely must experiment, stick with hydrocodone. It's much safer than Hydromorphone for an opiate-naive individual... or people in general, really. The withdrawal from Dilaudid is wicked and it doesnt take long to become obsessive with it and addicted.
