Dilaudid, which is a brand name for hydromorphone, is primarily metabolized in the liver. The main metabolic pathway converts hydromorphone into hydromorphone-3-glucuronide, an inactive metabolite. A smaller portion is also converted into other metabolites, including hydromorphone-6-glucuronide, which can have some pharmacological activity. These metabolites are then excreted primarily through the kidneys.

When taking vicodin can it be traced if your taking Dilaudids?

It depends on the type of test that is being conducted--and as such, how recently such medication was consumed by what route. The answer is, possibly but possibly not. Vicodin (containing hydrocodone) does metabolize into hydromorphone--Dilaudid. The question is somewhat confusing. If you're prescribed Vicodin and taking Dilaudid recreationally and are asking whether a drug test will trace the Dilaudid, then you are allegedly violating the Terms of Service.

What are the differences between heroin and diladid?

Heroin (Dieactylmorphine) is derived straight from the opium poppy and dilaudid is a synthetoc opioid. They have very similar effects, but are both very different drugs. Heroin will show up on a standard opiate test because it metabolizes into morphine. Dilaudid doesnt metabolize into morphine or codeine so it will not show up on a standard opiate test because it is a synthetic opioid.
