User Reviews for Dilaudid injection

I was in the ER with what they thought was appendicitis. They gave me the dilaudid, and everything went away. I was very loopy and it made me a little nauscious, but it works wonders.

Went to the ER with a torn Meniscis. They gave me a shot of dilaudid and the pain was eased. Now after seeing the Dr. I am taking dilaudid by mouth. The injection worked better but sure it was a bigger dose. The pills seem to be helping the pain quite a bit.

Had anterior cervical discectomy fusion surgery. While in recovery, broke out in severe sweats and temp spikes. Was given 4mg then down to 2mg. Apparently I have a low tolerance to this med. Also developed miminal air sac collasp in left upper lobe of lung. Was told I was breathing shallow in recovery and that caused that problem. Overall, I was not in any pain after that incident, do seem to have some up and down low grade temps. never heard of this drug and did not hear about it until after my procedure.Read More Read Less

went to the er for my endometriosis with heavy bleeding an blood clots had severe abdominal pain recieved 3mg of this medicine an istant the pain was gone this works better than any pain medicine i have ever had

I was shot and paralyzed in 2008 at that time i had morphine while i was in the hospital.It worked wonders through IV But since then i have had a few trips to the ER for severe pain and they gave me dilaudid in the IV. This med worked better than the morphine. It gives you a warm feeling but takes the pain away pretty quickly.

The hospital gave me this drug every 2-3 hours for abdominal pain caused me pancreatitis. The last injection caused me to stop breathing for a couple of seconds. I would wake up and frantically take a breath. I will never taked this again. There are definitely more pain drugs.

i usually have to have this drug for my severe migrains

This medication was given IV after knee replacement surgery. Worked VERY well each time.

I recieved this drug in the ER for a sevre headache. It took effect quiet immediately and poof my headache was gone. They had tried 3 medicines before it and nothing had worked. Although it made me loopy it was a great drug and eased the pain of my migrane.

I received Dilaudid in the ER to relieve severe pain from Kidney inflamation caused by a kidney stone blockage to the kidney (this stone will need to be passed later on). The pain was the worst I have felt and I broke my back 6 months earlier. The injection took effect quickly, but the effect is not complete, as others on this review site have stated. Worst of all the relieve only lasts from about 15 min. to a max. of 25 minutes, then wears off almost completely, leaving you to return to your severe pain and the doctors stating they can only give it to you again in another 3 hours. They have to find something more lasting! -PainfullyFrustratedRead More Read Less

I have severe migraines on a near daily basis and nerve damage through out my body. I have grown resistant to most other pain medications and was told to "tough it out". A couple of months ago an ER Dr. gave me dilaudid w/phengran for a level 10 migraine. It was amazing at how fast the relief came!! The only drawback was how long I wanted to sleep afterward.

I was given this drug at the ER for pancreantitis. I must have worked, I have no recolation of the next 4 days and became very anxious and paraniod.Was in the hospital and firmly believe they going to kill me

I have cronic back pain due to car accident and or 24 years operating heavy equipment,and was wondering ,hoping this drug may work for me .I think i've trying everything out there with on slight relief ant best.

I was given this while i was in the E.R. It worked wonderful.I ended up having emergency surgery for my appendix...the pain was very severe, and the med worked great.

This drug was administered to me in the hospital. I was unable to sleep after it was given to me, but it did relieve my pain.

While hospitalized for an infection in my toe, this is what the nurses gave me on a regular basis for pain and to make me sleep. It made me extremely paranoid and caused itching all over my body. As soon as they injected it into my IV, it caused pain in my neck. I've asked that it be noted in my medical file that I cannot take this type of pain medicine

I was very satasfied with the relief I received when taking dilaudid. I have had a seroius medical condition since the age of 16. Other pain medications are no longer as effective but this seems to help me out when I am in severe pain

well 50 units of demerol didnt do squat so they switched to 6 units of dilaudid and it was like day and night. this was following an amputation

I went to the ER with a severe migraine accompanied by nausea (dry heaving by then). I was given 5 mg. morphiene. That didn't touch the pain. I have never had dilaudid before and was skeptical. 1 mg. of Dilaudid along with 50 mg. of Phenergren (for nausea) worked amazingly well! I left feeling like I could run a marathon!

given in ER for extreem abdomninal pain with severe cramping.
