> Dear Shelli:
Morphine is the Benchmark.
Codeine is considered to be 10-15% as potent as Morphine. (100-150mg Codeine is equivalent to 10-15mg Morphine)
Oxycodone is considered equal to Morphine
(Personally, I think it is stronger. Has more of a 'stimulant' effect than Morphine).Hydrocodone is what, at least 1/2 as strong as Oxycodone?
Supposedly Dihydrocodeinone is 4X stronger than Dihydrocodeine.
Codeine and Dihydrocodeine are about the same.50-75mg Codeine = 10-15mg Hydrocodone?
I'm missing something.
Sorry.
There is no way a Tylenol #4 (60mg) is anywhere near as strong as a 10mg Lortab (hydrocodone).Hope this helps. I doubt it!
