Dilaudid, the brand name for hydromorphone, and oxycodone are both powerful opioid pain medications but differ in their chemical structure and potency. Dilaudid is generally considered to be more potent than oxycodone, meaning smaller doses may achieve similar pain relief. Additionally, they have different formulations and onset times, with Dilaudid often providing faster relief. Both carry risks of addiction and side effects typical of opioids.
short answer no, Oxycontin will show in high levels as Oxycodone, Dilaudid will show as Dilaudid or Hydromorphone, or in cheaper tests morphine.
The biggest difference is that Dilaudid is a synthetic opiate, whereas Percocet (Oxycodone and Tylenol combination) is a natural morphine derivative. Percocet is also generally stronger on the opiate scale.
Oxycodone is a narcotic drug with no acetaminophin or Ibprofrin. Dilaudid is not mixed with anything. Dilaudid is also stronger than morphine, as is Oxycodone. 5mg dilaudid is equivalent to approx. 40mg of morphine. Do not take any drug unless ordered by a doctor, as either drug can cause severe problems if taken improperly. Oxycodone is an immediate release drug where Oxycontin is the same as Oxycodone but as a time release.
The spelling.
Nah
no
There isn't really a difference, the both get you feeling rickity ross
Dilaudid (hydromorphone) is a potent opioid analgesic, and 4 mg of Dilaudid is generally considered to be equivalent to about 30 mg of oral morphine. In terms of Percocet, which contains oxycodone and acetaminophen, 4 mg of Dilaudid is roughly comparable to 15-20 mg of oxycodone, depending on individual tolerance and metabolic factors. However, potency can vary between individuals, so clinical judgment and individual patient factors should always be considered.
Both will show positive for OPIATES
No. Oxycontin contains Oxycodone and a few fillers, and Dilaudid contains an opiate called Hydromorphone, a more potent narcotic. But as far as both of them being opiates, that's the only similarity.
Hydrochloride means the product has a "salt" component in its chemical makeup. Dilaudid is hydromorphone hcl ( hydromorphone hydrochloride)
dilaudid is much stronger in terms of milligrams, most come in 2,4,6, and 8 mg doses. wereas percoset (oxycodone) will usually come in 5,10,20 mg doses. it depends on the patient some feel dilaudid works better ,others oxycodone.
