I removed a lot of clutter and tried to organize
This article was approaching 50k in size and repeated a lot of things over and over again, it had unneeded elaborations on very little things and it appeared to be written like an essay.
 * This is article needs more citations
 * This article needs less using brand names and more using the INN names
 * Less original research
 * Less HOWTO

Please help me with this, opioid articles appear to suffer from the highest amount of this (sometimes I find articles with no sections and walls and walls of text.) I just got finished cleaning dihydromorphine. Best regards, C6541 (T↔C)  22:54, 3 November 2012 (UTC)


 * You did a fine job with this article. Every issue that I can think of was well discussed. I don't know what this article looked like before you worked on it but kudos to you nonetheless. As for the dihydromorphine article, unless I missed it, I didn't see any mention of its' half-life. Could you please check on that? Thank you. Jtpaladin (talk) 06:59, 8 August 2016 (UTC)

Peer Review
1. Does the article provide a neutral point of view? Yes, the article does stay neutral through most of the article; however, the word "should" is used in the side effects and interactions sections, which indicates an opinion.

2. Are the points included verifiable with cited published material? Yes, the article is generally well-cited, although the last portion of some sections are lacking citations, as are the withdrawal, endogenous production, and recreational use sections.

3. What recommendations can you provide your colleague for improvement of their draft? Consider making the lead section a bit more concise, and removing dosing information. There could be a clinical uses section, so people can easily find what this drug is used for. You can also link nebulization to the nebulizer article, as some people may not know what it is.

Image isn't hydromorphone
The structural picture is of morphine, not hydromorphone. Darth Woden (talk) 20:41, 27 July 2016 (UTC)
 * It appears to be correct to me. Left is the structure of hydromorphone used in this article and right is the structure of morphine.  They are similar, but differ in the lower left.  -- Ed (Edgar181) 21:01, 27 July 2016 (UTC)

Inconsistent units for dilutions
This sentence uses inconsistent units to describe the amount of the drugs:

"The hydrochloride salt is soluble in three parts of water, whereas a gram of morphine hydrochloride dissolves in 16 ml of water;"

What is "three parts of water"? Maybe that's clear to someone who dispenses drugs, but not to ordinary folks like me -- why not use grams per ml for both salts? -- Dough34 (talk) 15:37, 6 April 2019 (UTC)
