Meperidine is generic for Demerol which in fact is very similar to Morphine so what do you think?.................Well if you said Meperidine you are correct. Yes they are all opiates. But Morphine is the father try smoking opium.
No you cannot drive after taking demerol, it impairs your ability to focus and causes severe drowsiness.
No - the expiration dates on most prescriptions are for full potency, though some, like those containing aspirin, shouldn't be used past a certain point after the expiration since they break down and aren't safe.
morphine, valium, subbies, and temmys, sniff them all. get blitzed
Demerol is a narcotic pain reliever similar to morphine.
Methadone is a synthetic opioid used as an analgesic and and maintenance anti-addictive.
If patient is truly allergic to either Demerol or Fentanyl (i.e. anaphylaxis or anaphylactic shock), then give morphine. Both drugs mentioned above are synthetics, which are completely different family from morphine, which is an alkaloid. Hope this helps.

I am a pharmacist. 7.5 mL (1.5 teaspoonfuls) of 50 mg per mL Demerol syrup will contain 75 mg. It is a simply and straightforward calculation, but if it helps, you can think of 50 mg per 5 mL as being 10 mg per mL. Therefore, 7.5 mL of the syrup contains 75 mg.

Yes you can, and the euphoric proprieties surpass that of hydro-morphine. SO HOW DO YOU MIX ITTO SHOOT IT
Consult a doctor or medical professional. It is not recommended. Again, consult the prescribing doctor or medical professional. "http://psyweb.com/Drughtm/DrughtmAdv/jsp/AdvXanax.jsp" states "Narcotic analgesics of any kind, like Darvon (propoxyphene), Darvocet (propoxyphene, acetaminophen), Demerol (meperidine), Codeine, Percocet (oxycodone, acetaminophen), Vicodin (hydrocodone, acetaminophen), Vicoprofen (hydrocodone and ibuprofen) or OxyContin (oxycodone) may accelerate central nervous system or respiratory depression when taken with Xanax. Also, Xanax may decrease the effectiveness of these medications as pain relievers." and recommends asking your doctor's advice before combining these drugs.

The real answer according to Mass Pain Clinic is
7.5mg Dilaudid = 30mg Morphine
per Mass.HospitalPain Clinic
That is an ORAL dose... it changes if it is admistered IV to:
1.5mg Dilaudid IV = 10mg Morphine IV
In some tests, it shows as an opiate, such as heroin. To specifically look for meperidine (Demerol), it would need to be noted on the control sheet for an accurate test.
the Fentanyl Buccal Tablets I take for cancer pain are small, round, white tabs with 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, or 8 on them refering to the hundreds of mgs.
Both demerol and percocet are opioids, meaning they have opium alkaloids as their base. As far as potency goes, the oxycodone in Percocet is stronger than the meperidine in Demerol. Taken orally, Demerol is only about one-third as strong as when given IV or in a muscle. Taken orally, oxycodone is about 50% stronger than morphine, which is many times stronger than meperidine.
We need to know the concentration of how many mg per ml.
From experience if you take the same amount of oxycodone(ex. percocet roxicodone) and demerol, Demerol is stronger.
3-5 days depending on dosage and legnth of use.
