Can you take sleeping pills and Dilaudid together?

Combining sleeping pills with Dilaudid (hydromorphone) can be dangerous and is generally not recommended without medical supervision. Both substances can depress the central nervous system, leading to increased risks of respiratory depression, sedation, and overdose. If you are considering taking these medications together, it's crucial to consult a healthcare professional for personalized advice and guidance.

How long does a single dose of 2 mg Dilaudid last in your body by tox screen?

A single dose of 2 mg Dilaudid (hydromorphone) can typically be detected in urine for about 3 to 4 days after administration, although this can vary based on factors like metabolism, frequency of use, and hydration levels. In blood tests, it may be detectable for a shorter duration, usually up to 24 hours. Hair follicle tests can detect hydromorphone for much longer, potentially up to 90 days. Always consult with a healthcare professional for specific concerns regarding drug testing.

Will Dilaudid or hydromorphone affect a blood alcohol test?

Dilaudid, which is a brand name for hydromorphone, will not directly affect a standard blood alcohol test, as these tests specifically measure the concentration of ethanol in the blood. However, taking hydromorphone can impair judgment and coordination, similar to alcohol, which may influence overall test results regarding impairment. Additionally, combining the two substances can increase the risk of respiratory depression and other dangerous side effects. Always consult a healthcare professional for personalized advice regarding medications and alcohol use.

80 mg Oxycontin is by far stronger than 10mg of vicodin(hydrocodone).

How high of a dose of intravenous Dilaudid can a patient receive?

It depends on the person and how high their tolerance is, the doctors also take into account any medications you are on that they know about and how much you weigh. There is no limit for how much you can take if your tolerance is super high I have been give me 60 milligrams which would normally kill an opiate naive person! generally someone who has not taken painkillers and has no tolerance can you stand up 4-8 milligrams of Dilaudid staggered over an hour and that will be more than enough to kill any pain that they have.

Is hydrochlorothiazide a pain killer?

No. Hydrochlorothiazide (H.C.T.Z) is not a pain killer. It is a Diuretic. This means that is removes access water from your body via urination. It's commonly used to treat high blood pressure as it removes access water from around the pericardium (sack that contains the heart).

Can Dilaudid cause a positive drug screen for oxycodone?

I think what you are asking is, does Dilaudid make an opiate test positive. Dilaudid, or hydrocodone, is an opiate. But it does not show positive on a standard opioid screen, where they test for morphine, and morphine metabolites. Heroin and codeine show positive because they break down into morphine in the body. Urine samples containing low to moderate concentrations of hydromorphone, hydrocodone, oxymorphone, and oxycodone will likely go undetected when tested by conventional immunoassays, which are the secondary tests performed when the initial pass shows positive. But you shouldn't have to worry about that, anyway, if you're only taking Dilaudid, and they do not have reason to suspect you.

What are the symptoms of using too much Dilaudid?

Dilaudid, though a synthetic opiate, has all of the typical side effects of most natural opiate derivatives. The primary symptom of opiate overdose is Respiratory Depression and drowsiness or unconsciousness if enough is taken, or the patient isn't opiate tolerant. Respiratory depression (shortness of breath with eventual lung failure) is the biggest problem most people deal with. Unless dealt with immediately, respiratory depression can quickly lead to complete failure of the lungs and heart, leading to death or worse if the person is revived and brain damage has occurred as a result.

The standard drug for overdose reversal of opiates is Narcan (Nalaxone) which is an opiate blocker. Within 2 minutes is completely reverses the effects of an overdose, but the patient is still in for a rough time as a result, especially since Dilaudid is typically used for post-op pain and Narcan's effects last for around 2 hours or more.
