How Long Take Before Go Thru Witdarwal

Updated

Been prescibed dilaudid last few months as a breakthru med. 4mg 2x day as/if needed. So I haven't taking everyday & somtimes 1/2 of the 4mg. Mainly take ms contin er. How long taking the dilaudid b/4 I go thru withdrawal if I stop taking the dilaudid?? Been on it here & then a few months?? Or taking the ms contin for yrs. Wouldn't that prevent withdrawal ??? Please help!?

Such a small amount of hydromorphone should not cause a problem as far as withdrawal goes. I would be more concerned about the morphine XR than the D's.

Bruce is correct, though we are all different, so there is a small risk of your experiencing withdrawal symptoms, which the FDA lists as possibly including nausea, dizziness, dry mouth, headache, constipation, and mood changes. They also warn that both of these medications carry the risk of being habit forming.

Kathy56, do you actually need the Dilaudid, or are you doing well on just the Morphine?
