Dihydromorphine is a semi-synthetic opioid derived from morphine. dihydromorphine is a moderately strong analgesic and is used clinically in the treatment of pain and is also the active metabolite of dihydrocodeine. Dihydromorphine acts as an agonist at the μ-opioid (mu), δ-opioid (delta) and κ-opioid (kappa) receptors. Dihydromorphone is approved for clinical use in the United States, Europe, and Japan; and sold under the brand name Dilaudid. Similar to morphine, and other morphine derivatives, hydromorphone has a high potential for addiction and abuse and is listed as a Schedule II drug in the United States Controlled Substances Act of 1970 (and similarly regulated in other countries).

Approved Use

Dihydromorphine is approved for the treatment of pain and to be administered as an injection, oral tablet or oral solution. The usual starting injection dose is 1-2 mg subcutaneously or intramuscularly every 4 to 6 hours as necessary for pain control. The usual adult oral dosage of DILAUDID ORAL LIQUID is one-half (2.5 mL) to two teaspoonfuls (10 mL) corresponding to 2.5 mg - 10 mg every 3 to 6 hours as directed by the clinical situation. The usual starting dose for DILAUDID tablets is 2 mg to 4 mg, orally, every 4 to 6 hours.

Route of Administration: Other
Human Embryonic Kidney 293 cells (HEK293) were transfected with mouse delta-opioid receptor and maintained in D-MEM/F-12 medium, supplemented with 10% (v/v)fetal calf serum (FCS), and 200 micro-g/mL G-418 in an atmosphere of 5% CO2 at 37 deg-C. Cells were re-plated once per week. Agonistic activity of opioid ligands was assessed by measuring the inhibitory effect of the ligands on forskolin-stimulated cAMP accumulation. Hydromorphone demonstrated an IC50 of 54 nM for the activation of HEK-delta cells.
