Hydromorphone has a high risk for abuse and severe, possibly fatal, breathing problems. The risk for harm is higher if you take the wrong dose/strength, or if you take it along with other drugs that might also affect breathing. Be sure you know how to take hydromorphone and what other drugs you should avoid taking with it. Get immediate medical help if you notice unusual slow/shallow breathing.
