Dilaudid is a brand name for the prescription medication hydromorphone. It is a potent opioid analgesic used to manage moderate to severe pain. Hydromorphone, the active ingredient in Dilaudid, works by binding to opioid receptors in the brain and spinal cord, thereby altering the perception of pain.
