How would 100mg coedine compare to 100mg morphine?
Morphine is up to 10 times stronger than codeine on a mg per mg basis. Codeine is not an active pain killer until it is converted to morphine in the liver. People have different rates of conversion so it is hard to give an exact dose equivalent.

unfortunately your question is incomplete so cannot be answered. Morphine and codeine are rlated substances. Morphine Sulphate does not contain codiene as such.
What is the equivalent dosage of morphine sulphate tincture to 4 mg Dilaudid?
30 mg of Morphine IR is equal to approximately 8 mg of Diluadid, so there is about a 4mg morphine to 1 mg of dilaudid ratio. So 45 mg of morphine would be equal to 5.6 mg of dilaudid. To answer your question, 45 mg of Morphine IR would stronger than taking the 4 mg of dilaudid.

The Fentanyl patches by over twice the margin.120mg of oral morphine every 8 hours is equal to 360mg per day of oral morphine (24hr period). The Fentanyl patch equivalent dose (Duragesic for comparison purposes) is a single 100mcg Fentanyl patch.

How many milligrams are in 1 milliliters of liquid morphine?
A millilitre (mL) is a unit of volume. A milligram (mg) is a unit of mass."20 mL" of morphine would imply that the morphine is suspended in a liquid, and depending on morphine's solubility in this liquid and so forth, there can be a different amount of morphine per mL. Usually a liquid suspension like this will be "X mg per mL" or "X mg/mL" as labelled on an ampoule or something similar.For example, you one may find an ampoule that contains 4 mg/mL of morphine (in which case the answer would be 80 mg) or one that contains 20 mg/mL (in which case the answer would be 400 mg), etc.There is no fixed answer, *but* you should know that a morphine dose is measured in mg and not mL, so if all you know is the amount of mL, it's not safe to measure out a dose.
IS Oxycodone and morpine equal?
No, both are analgesic.. but they're not "equivalent" in efficiency.. oxycodone, at the same dosage, is twice more powerful than morphine. 10 mg morphine = 5 mg oxycodone.
Does codeine have acetaminophen?
Over the counter, NO! You need a prescription, as it is a controlled substance, but they combine the 2 drugs for mild to moderate pain. The dose of Tylenol (Acetaminophen) is usually 500 Mg's. The most commonly prescribed dose of Codeine is: 45 mg. It is referred to as a T-3. They come in 4 strengths. T-1= 15 mg, T-2= 30 mg, T-4= 60 mg. On the prescription bottle, It will be written: Acetaminophen w/ Codeine, 1,2,3 or 4 if you get the generic version. Hope this answered your question. Have a great day !
Is it possible that morphine sulfate will not relieve pain for some people?
Yes. Depending on the tolerance of the patient to the effect of morphine, a normal IV dose of 5 mg (or an oral dose of 15 mg) may not relieve the pain. Tolerant people (who have been taking morphine for a long time, and who therefore have become somewhat "immune" to the effects) can require many times the normal, starting dose of morphine for pain relief. Given an adequate dose, however, there is no intrinsic limit to the pain relieving properties of morphine. This is one of the key advantages of this drug, and it is a reason it is still the gold standard for analgesics 160 years after its discovery.
