Dilaudid contains the active ingredient Hydromorphone, which is another narcotic opiate. It's related to Morphine, but not the same.

It does have the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth, headache and constipation.

Since you are allergic to Morphine, there is a chance that you may be allergic to other opiates as well, thus please watch for the signs of an allergic reaction, such as hives, trouble breathing, or throat swelling.

Has your doctor prescribed it and are they aware of your allergy?

Regarding Dilaudid. I always have Dilaudid when I have surgery. I have allergic problems with Morphine. I have had issues getting off of Dilaudid after surgery, however it can be done. I now just take 10/325 Percocet & Soma. I have numerous issues & I am disabled since 2008. I have been on Fentalyn Patches as well. I did not want to be dependent on such strong pain relievers. No matter what your pain issues are, you have to resolve to do the right thing: not let stronger pain relievers control your life. Meditate, do Yoga and try to keep your mind off of the pain level you are in.
