My mom was prescribed 2mg hydromorphone for moderate back pain due to her terminal cancer, her diagnosis is looking like the cancer is bile duct cancer, she just had a stent put in her bile duct because of obstructive jaundice and her kidney and liver function is obviously not good. I did some reading about this drug and it said it s not a good drug to give to anyone with liver, kidney or bile duct issues... I was told that Tylenol and Ibuprofen is not an appropriate pain reliever because they are hard on these organs. So my question is ...is hydromorphone okay for her then??
