Opiates undergo a two-stage metabolism when you take them. First they become morphine and then they make you high. Drugs that do this are called Prodrugs.

Fentanyl is an opioid with a structure very different from that of other opioids such as heroin and oxycodone. Thus, if fentanyl were to be tested for on a drug test, it would show up only as fentanyl, not opiates (morphine, codeine, heroin) or other opioids (oxycodone, hydrocodone, etc.).

Does Dilaudid and norco show up in same category of urinalysis test?

No, Hydromorphone (Dilaudid) does not show up in the basic opiate test which is part of the standard drug test. The opiate tests look for morphine (which both codeine and heroin break down into). Hydromorphone does not break down into morphine. But also hydromorphone can be detected with a simple drug test.
