What drug does morphine show as what drug?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Morphine shows up as opiates. Because all opiates convert to morphine once they get into your system, the test is just named "opiates."

Can morphine be drug tested?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Several opiate drugs will test positive on morphine test.

Even eating a poppy seed muffin (or other pastry containing poppy seeds) can test positive on morphine test if they have a low enough threshold, which might be used to test if you have traces left from using morphine some time ago.

What is the Most natural form of morphine prescribed?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Well, all opiates are generally "safe" when not used in conjunction with other drugs and not used in excess. The only actual physical symptoms are constipation and itchiness. Of course, once you become dependent, the withdrawal is the same for all opiates.

So to answer your questions, the "safest" form of morphine is any opiate pharmaceutical. They're made in a lab. Heroin is produced on the black market, so the chances of someone cutting it with impurities are much larger, however typically heroin is the least expensive/most potent opiate.

So they're all equally safe provided you use them as directed, however, once you become dependent, the pain is indescribable. I literally can't describe it. It's literally the worst pain a human being can survive...

I was a heroin addict for almost a year. Trust me. I started with hydrocodone and oxycodone. The pills are the same as the dope (heroin), they're just more expensive and don't work as well.

How do you take time release coating off morphine?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The time release for products like MSContin (morphine sulfate) and Oxycontin (oxycodone hcl) is not in the coloured coating, it is in the entire matrix of the pill. Crushing the pill before oral ingestion defeats the time release which is why controlled release products generally state that one should not do this.

Other time release technology is used in products like Kapanol (morphine sulfate), in the form of tiny beads designed to slow release the drug. They are contained in a gel cap which melts after oral ingestion, releasing them to break down slowly. In the same way, if the beads are emptied out of the gel cap and finely powdered before oral ingestion, the time release is defeated, and a potentially dangerous amount of drug will be released at one time.

How much morphine to kill a cancer victim?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

depends on their weight, their biology, and how much they have had to begin with and for how long. I am a retired RN...sometimes 25 mg made a patient sleep for hours and sometimes it took 200 mg. .. and then then they were only drowsy. if the person had, say, benzidiazepiens like Valium or atavan on board, the morphine would hit them stronger. If the person was on oxygen, it could take more. Way too many variables to say. Stephen King had a man trying with 200 mg. Oxycontin in water (crushed tablets)...it probably would work in this otherwise healthy fictitious man. Also, positioning has a lot to do with it...if the victim vomits and chokes or otherwise develops a blocked airway, they could die on relatively little morphine. In Russia, when those horrible terrorists took over the opera house, and the police gassed everyone with an anesthetic, some people died because they were in, or put in by accident and stupidity by the police, positions that closed their airway. One rescued child and others were put , unconscious, by the police, in upright positions on a bus...their heads rolled forward or back and they asphyated. Very sad lesson.

What drugs will test positive for morphine?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Anything containing opiates or opioids will result in a positive on a drug test. This includes almost all prescription painkillers (vicodin, codeine, percocet, hydrocodone, oxycontin, etc.), heroin, opium, and of course...morphine. Morphine can be detected in your urine for up to four days after consumption, while other opiates may dissipate in only one or two days.

What are the social effects of morphine?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The person taking the morphine becomes very sleepy, slow, looks like there half awake, and doesn't do much besides sleep. It is terrible watching someone get addicted to this drug because it consumes their life. They can become so dependent that they sell or pawn off items that used to be important just to get more morphine. It is very sad to see someone fall into this terrible habit and extremely difficult to get them to stop. It is a drug that can tear apart a family. I would highly recommend avoiding it, even though it does relieve pain, the side effects are far worse, not to mention the effects of withdrawal.

Is morphine ok to take during pregnancy?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

I'm 37 weeks and 4 days pregnant with the worst headache ever at shea hospital. The doc wants to give me morphine, so I hope this helps all you ladies out here expecting and in uber pain, but not quite delivering your baby yet. It would appear it is safe during pregnancy at any time according to the doctor. It will not mess with our babies vitals is what I was told. Morphine can make you feel neasia but the nurse said it may not be to bad if administered slowly in the IV line. Remember always consult you physician never self diagnose and administer any narcodic with out permission from a licensed health care service provider. You will feel heavy like a brick and your head should feel better in about 3 minutes or less. Nurse or doctor will tell you not to get out of bed due to the drugs so don't get out of bed without the assistance of the staff for your own safety. Good job Shea Hospital labor and delivory center.

Would codeine show as morphine in a urine drug screen?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

On a simple urine test,Codeine and Morphine will show up as the same thing. This is because Codeine is metabolized to Morphine in the liver. So the Morphine metabolites are excreted in urine. Usually when this happens, the next step is to analyze the levels of these metabolites to deduce whether it was Codeine or Morphine consumed.

On a GC/MS test,this test will show the molecular fingerprint of any drug(s) consumed.

Does morphine feel like Oxycontin?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

First of all, it doesn't. Opium kind of messes you up, but mostly just makes you feel good and high. Oxy kinda makes you feel good, but mostly messes you up.

Second, that's a terrible assumption since the most active alkaloid in opium is morphine, and oxy is derived from thebaine, another narcotic alkaloid found in opium. Apparently thebaine has stimulatory effects, which might explain why a fair number of people report that they feel energized when they do oxy; although, it might just be that they're addicted and were experience withdrawals, and once they did it, they were no longer experiencing withdrawal and had more energy.

What is the equivalent dosage of morphine sulphate tincture to 4 mg Dilaudid?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

30 mg of Morphine IR is equal to approximately 8 mg of Diluadid, so there is about a 4mg morphine to 1 mg of dilaudid ratio. So 45 mg of morphine would be equal to 5.6 mg of dilaudid. To answer your question, 45 mg of Morphine IR would stronger than taking the 4 mg of dilaudid.

Why did you fail a drug screen for morphine?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

First of all if you're worried about being sanctioned by the courts for a dirty drug screen, the best way to pass is time. Plenty of water should be drinken as well as cranberry juice and minimum exercise to sweat it out of you're system. A system cleaner from a head shop wouldn't hurt but is unreliable.
