Maintain good hydration

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your query.

Low levels of hydration during consumption of the Hydromorphone can lead to side effects like increased fatigue, dizziness, muscle pains etc.

Do maintain good hydration by drinking ample amount of water when you take you medication. Also, you can supplement water with electrolyte solutions available in the market.

If you sweat more soon after consumption of the drug, please visit your treating doctor as it could be due to the drug and needs dose modification.

Hope, I answered your query.

Wish you good health.
