Hi Nereidao,

From what I could gather, there are no drug interactions or contraindications listed between Fentanyl and Exalgo (hydromorphone). So both of these medications are considered to be safe when taken together or within the same time frame.

Alcohol and grapefruit are pretty much the main things you should probably stay away from as far as drug interactions are concerned; since having them together may cause serious life threatening side effects.

I hope this info helps!
