Not sure, I just took an 8 panel oxy had its own category and hydrododone was catagerized as morphine. Opiate wasn't an option, which is unusual to me. Not sure which category that would put dilaudid.

Hi there HighonLife and I love your nickname! I just wanted to let you know that this string of posts is over one year old so they won't see your comment. There hasn't been any activity from the original poster. That was very thoughtful of you to reply, too. Unfortunately, we have no idea of the disposition on this situation...

Hey newheretoday,
The 9 panel test covers the following categories:
The panels referenced are marijuana, cocaine, PCP, opiates, methamphetamine, methadone, amphetamines, barbiturates, and benzodiazepines.
Read more: What Is Included in a 9 Panel Drug Screen?

So the dilaudid (hydromorphone) and the oxycodone will show as opiates. Unless they test further you should be covered with your prescription for oxycodone.
Hope this helps,
Laurie

i recieved a call from the dr's office for the lab today. i worked nights and was asleep so need to call them back tommorrow. i told the person who tested me and my supervisor i have a rx. she said we would have to wait for results and HR would of course hear my side of things. ive read that they can def tell the difference between the two if go into gs confirmation spectrometry or whatever it is. im just praying to god my rx covers me and it wont come to that. one metabolizes into morphine and oxy does not so im so confused and so worried. the sickest part is i was clean on subs and this occurred on the last day of a week long lil lapse. i could kill myself. i feel like god is punishing me and my family is about to pay the price when i lose my job and my livelihood. im clean now and have been since that day. im praying god gives me another chance i will never "slip" again and am not refilling my oxys.
( like an ass i filled my rx thinking i could hold on to it for emergancies but i know my levels are gonna be high either way. any advise on how to handle the dr when i call?

Hey newheretoday,
You maybe in a pickle if they test with something that can detect the difference between the different opiates or their metabolites. If they detect the diluadid, you will have to be honest with the HR person and explain thoroughly the situation. Then pray for the best. I wish I had a better alternative but honesty is the best policy. As far as the doctor's office, they are just going to give you the results, the consequences are upto the HR person, if I understand you correctly.
