Patients with renal abnormalities must exercise caution when dosing hydromorphone. In those with renal impairment, the half-life of hydromorphone may increase to as much as 40 hours. The typical half-life of intravenous hydromorphone is 2.3 hours. [48] Peak plasma levels usually occur between 30 and 60 minutes after oral dosing. [49]
Gastric emptying time can vary from 0 to 3 hours, [2] and therefore plays a major role in onset of action for orally administered drugs. For intravenous administration, the pathway is much shorter because the drug is administered (usually already in solution) directly to the bloodstream.
Diacetyldihydromorphine is fast-acting and longer-lasting than diamorphine, with a duration of action of around 4–7 hours. [1] As an ester/analogue of dihydromorphine, diacetyldihydromorphine is presumably a Schedule I/Narcotic controlled substance in the United States but does not have its own ACSCN or annual production quota. It does appear ...

In recreational psychoactive drug spaces, duration refers to the length of time over which the subjective effects of a psychoactive substance manifest themselves. Duration can be broken down into 6 parts: (1) total duration (2) onset (3) come up (4) peak (5) offset and (6) after effects.

For constant pain, the relieving effect of extended-release morphine given once (for Kadian [9]) or twice (for MS Contin [9]) every 24 hours is roughly the same as multiple administrations of immediate release (or "regular") morphine. [10]
Hydromorphinol (RAM-320, 14-hydroxydihydromorphine), [2] is an opiate analogue that is a derivative of morphine, where the 14-position has been hydroxylated and the 7,8- double bond saturated. [3]
