What is a Hydromorphone?

Hydromorphone is a prescription drug for oral intake that is also available with the brand name Dilaudid (immediate-release). These capsules are also available in the form of generic medications. It helps treat severe pain that is not under control by other medicines.  Hydromorphone comes in three forms: injectable solution, oral liquid solution, and high-potency injectable solution. Your medical healthcare provider will provide you with the injection. It may reduce pain by acting on specific opioid receptors in the spinal cord and the brain, which consists of your central nervous system. 

Important Information

Hydromorphone can also make your breathing shallow like other narcotic drugs. If the breathing becomes too weak, death may occur. Older adults, malnourished, and sick people are more likely to suffer from breathing problems due to hydromorphone use.  If you take opioid medication during pregnancy, you could give birth to a drug-dependent baby. It can cause fatal withdrawal symptoms in the baby after its inception. Babies born dependent on opioids like Hydromorphone may need treatment for several weeks. Do not breastfeed while taking Hydromorphone because the drug can pass into breast milk and cause breathing problems or drowsiness in a nursing baby. 

What to know before taking Hydromorphone?

Before taking it, tell each medical healthcare provider if you are allergic to it or other opioid medication such as hydrocodone, morphine, or any other allergy. It may contain inactive ingredients like sulfites or latex, which can cause allergic reactions or other issues.  Before using this medication, tell your medical healthcare professional about your medical history, especially of:

• Stomach or intestinal problems such as constipation, blockage, paralytic ileus, diarrhea due to infection;
• Brain disorders such as a tumor, brain injury, seizures, increased intracranial pressure;
• Breathing problems like chronic bronchitis, emphysema, sleep apnea, asthma;

How to take a Hydromorphone?

Take Hydromorphone precisely as per the doctor’s recommendation. Never share opioids with someone else, especially someone with a past of drug abuse, overuse, or addiction. Misuse of Hydromorphone can cause overdose, addiction, or death.  Stop taking all the usual narcotics when you start using Hydromorphone. Swallow the whole capsule rather than crushing, chewing, breaking, dissolving, or opening it to avoid exposure to a potentially dangerous overdose.  Never break or crush a hydromorphone capsule to dissolve it into a liquid or inhale it or inject it into your vein. It can cause death. Carefully measure the liquid medicine. Use the available dosing syringe or a medicine dose-measuring device rather than a kitchen spoon. Do not suddenly stop taking Hydromorphone, or you could face unpleasant withdrawal symptoms. Take your doctor’s help to stop using this drug safely. Store hydromorphone away from heat and moisture at room temperature. Throw away any unused liquid medicine after 90 days.
