Hydromorphone, also known as dihydromorphinone, and sold under the brand name Dilaudid among others, is an opioid used to treat moderate to severe pain.[4] Typically, long-term use is only recommended for pain due to cancer.[7] It may be used by mouth or by injection into a vein, muscle, or under the skin.[4] Effects generally begin within half an hour and last for up to five hours.[4]
Common side effects include dizziness, sleepiness, nausea, itchiness, and constipation.[4] Serious side effects may include abuse, low blood pressure, seizures, respiratory depression, and serotonin syndrome.[4] Rapidly decreasing the dose may result in opioid withdrawal.[4] Generally, use during pregnancy or breastfeeding is not recommended.[8] Hydromorphone is believed to work by activating opioid receptors, mainly in the brain and spinal cord.[4] Hydromorphone 2 mg by mouth is equivalent to approximately 10 mg morphine by mouth.[7]
Hydromorphone was patented in 1923.[9] It is available as a generic medication.[4] In the United Kingdom it costs the NHS about £0.32 per 2 mg tablet as of 2019.[7] In the United States the wholesale cost of this amount is about US$0.07.[10] In 2017, it was the 205th most commonly prescribed medication in the United States, with more than two million prescriptions.[11][12] Hydromorphone is made from morphine.[13]
