Morphine to fentanyl: Variable c, d: Divide 24h morphine dose in mg by : Morphine 60 mg/24h PO fentanyl 400 mcg/24h SC/IV: Morphine to hydromorphone: 10:1: Divide 24h morphine dose by 10: Morphine 60 mg/24h PO hydromorphone 6 mg/24h SC/IV: Morphine to morphine: 2:1: Divide 24h morphine dose by 2: Morphine 60 mg/24h PO
and regular dosing. Example 1 60mg morphine slow release tablet BD PO =total daily dose oral morphine 120mg PO =60mg SC morphine/24 hrs =
potency ratio for PO tramadol and PO morphine to be 1:10 (i.e. tramadol 100mg. PO=morphine 10mg PO). In the PO opioid dose conversion ratios table a tramadol
and regular dosing. Example 1 60mg morphine slow release tablet BD PO =total daily dose oral morphine 120mg PO =60mg SC morphine/24 hrs =
Approximate equivalent doses for oral morphine, IV/SQ morphine, and TD fentanyl Use the equianalgesic ratio of PO to IV morphine: 30 mg po Morphine = 10 mg IV
1) Using the IV morphine:PO morphine conversion ratio, convert to PO morphine: X = 60 mg PO morphine 20 mg IV morphine = 10 mg IV morphine X mg PO morphine 30 mg PO morphine 2) Using the PO morphine:PO oxycodone conversion ratio, convert to PO oxycodone: X = 40 mg PO oxycodone 60 mg PO morphine = 30 mg PO morphine
and regular dosing. Example 1 60mg morphine slow release tablet BD PO =total daily dose oral morphine 120mg PO =60mg SC morphine/24 hrs =
1) Using the IV morphine:PO morphine conversion ratio, convert to PO morphine: X = 60 mg PO morphine 20 mg IV morphine = 10 mg IV morphine X mg PO morphine 30 mg PO morphine 2) Using the PO morphine:PO oxycodone conversion ratio, convert to PO oxycodone: X = 40 mg PO oxycodone 60 mg PO morphine = 30 mg PO morphine
and regular dosing. Example 1 60mg morphine slow release tablet BD PO =total daily dose oral morphine 120mg PO =60mg SC morphine/24 hrs =
