Can Dilaudid And Morphine Be Taken Together?
Hi. My mother is in a rehab facility. They had ran out her pain medication..so when they received them from pharmacy. They gave her 15mg of morphine and 4mg of dilaudid at the same time. They normally give her dilaudid every 4 hrs and the morphine every 12. I m scared about this. Is this dangerous?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Hydromorphone and morphine both increase sedation, they can be used together in hospital conditions, but close monitoring is necessary.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
