Does hydromorphone cause greater respiratory depression then morphine?

A milligram of hydromorphine (brand name dilaudid) is approximately 5-7 times stronger than a milligram of morphine. Thus 1 mg of hydromorphone is more effective at treating pain and more likely to have side effects, such as respiratory depression than the same dose of morphine. People should be started on lower doses of hydromophone than morphine for initial pain management. However, once the relative strengths are taken into account, hydromorphone is about as likely to cause respiratory depression as morphine.

Does morphine and methadone show up the same in a drug test?

Will levorphanol get you high?

My pain management doctor was part of a pain fellowship in San Francisco. He found that levorphanol can be used for pain in recovering addicts much more safely than hydrocodone or oxycodone. As a recovering addict, I found that levorphanol does not produce the euphoria that I had with Vicodin and Percocet / Oxycotin. I've been able to use levorphanol for over a year without increasing my dosage (on my own) or experiencing any side effects - there is simply no incentive for me to abuse this drug. It gave me back the ability to walk without pain and gave me back my life.
