dilaudid is a short acting opioid... it only lasts 3-4 hours for me at any dose.... instead of trying to go longer between doses it would be more advisable to instead use a smaller dose but dont spread them farther apart... that is when pain breaks through and then more is needed to get rid of it. also this way will further decreace you daughters chance of haveing any withdrawal symptoms because her body will recognize a smaller dose as cutting back instead of getting a large dose less often, causing a lot of ups and downs...
