Its a pain killer. The hospitals give them to cancer patients or ill people.
That's not so true. I was on diloted when I had my scoliosis surgery. Just saying its for other thigs too.
Isn't scoliosis an illness?
To say that the hospital will not choose to use Diloted for anything else other than surgery related pain, or gallblader attacks, is FALSE. I suffer from migraines. Yes I know that would fall under the ILLNESS category, but just wanted to make it clear, that if the hospital chooses so, depending on your pain, they will administer Diloted due to it's extreme affectiveness at relieving the pain in a matter of minutes in some cases. My wife was also given Diloted in the ER for severe cramping. It's really up to the ER doctor as for what they choose to give you, but in most cases for severe pain, Diloted will be the medication they choose to administer.

Is diloted stronger than norco?
yes
Is diloted given for kidney stones?
Yes, the hospital will administer the pain medication during a gallbladder attack. But that is usually it. They usually send you home with a prescription of percocet to take if you have another attack at home.
Why did diloted not take away my appendix pain?
Things like this don't go away like that Sometimes what you think will take the pain away only does a little and thats a real delicate place to have surgery it would take more of a pain relief then your using i would call your doctor and explain to him whats going on and see what the doctor has to say.
Is dilatid like morphine?
I'll assume you mean "DILAUDID." Yes, both are mu-opioid agonists and work in a similar fashion. Typically, dilaudid (hydromorphone) is more efficacious (stronger) than morphine, but tends to last for shorter time. A patient that is in moderate pain may be given, for example: * 10mg Morphine Sulfate every 6 hours by I.M. injection * 2mg hydromorphine HCl, PRN (as needed) for breakthrough pain, by I.M. injection. In this instance, the doctors are using morphine to cover the pain in 6 hour blocks of time, while using the hydromorphone as needed for any pain that still remains.
