I found out 1st of all,that dilaudid is a SCHEDULE 2 narcotic and not a CLASS 2. Shows how much I know about Rx drugs. Thanks for keeping me informed. I will definitely be back to this site when I have anymore questions or concerns.

Hello, Sassie! I'm glad you saw my other post.

To give you a bit more clarification for future reference all controlled substances fit somewhere in the 5 Schedules. Schedule 5 are those that aren't considered to have much addictive or abusive potential, such as narcotic cough medications or some anticonvulsants, while Schedule 1 are those that are considered severely dangerous and which have no valid medical use.

But a drug class is actually the category they fall into, such as antibiotics, cardiac medications, antidepressants and etc.

Are there any other questions or concerns?
