Milligrams Of Methadone The Equals Dilaudid
Updated1 Reply
From my perspective, there's no easy or safe way to answer this question (outside of your doctor's recommendation) due to patient-to-patient variability, including differences in cross-tolerance from one drug to another. For these reasons I would encourage you to talk with your doctor about finding the right dosage; especially since he/she would be the one prescribing it to you in the first place and would already have done the conversion themselves prior to writing your prescription for Dilaudid.
However the chart linked below is the closest thing I've found to determining how to convert/measure dosages between Methadone and Hydromorphone (Dilaudid). Perhaps it can be of assistance to you or others who are able to understand the conversion process better than I:

Hope this helps!
