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
§§ For a single dose, 10 mg IV morphine = 60 mg oral morphine. For chronic dosing, 10 mg IV morphine = 30 mg oral morphine. (N) Non-formulary at UIHC.
Step TWO Convert IV morphine to Oral morphine. 1. Convert IV morphine to oral morphine by multiplying total dose by 2 (morphine. IV:morphine
Supplied As. IV: Morphine sulphate 10mg in 1 mL for injection. Oral: Morphine hydrochloride solution 1mg/mL for oral use Oral mcg/dose = iv
