My doctor recently put me on long acting 12mg dilaudid and short acting 8mg dilaudid to take in between. Can I take the short acting dilaudid even though I just took the long acting? I don't wanna overdose. Please help.

How long have you been taking opiates and at what doses?

The NIH warns that these medications carry the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, and constipation.

How much is too much really depends on your tolerance to opiates, and whether or not you follow your doctor's prescribing instructions.

Are you on any other medications?
