Hydromorphone Cimetidine

Codeine, hydrocodone, morphine, methadone, and oxycodone are substrates of the cytochrome P-450 isoenzyme CYP2D6.47 Inhibition of CYP2D6 results in decreased analgesia of codeine and hydrocodone due to decreased conversion to the active metabolites (e.g., morphine and hydromorphone, respectively) and increased effects of morphine, methadone, and oxycodone. Methadone is also a substrate of CYP3A4, and its metabolism is increased by phenytoin and decreased by cimetidine. CNS depressants may potentiate the sedative effects of opiates.

No clinically significant interaction appears to occur between ci-metidine and butorphanol (intranasal), hydromorphone, morphine, pethidine or tramadol between famotidine and hydromorphone or between ranitidine and hydromorphone, morphine, or pethidine. However, isolated reports describe adverse reactions in patients taking methadone, morphine or mixed opium alkaloids with cimetidine, or morphine with ranitidine. 

The US manufacturer of hydromorphone says that the concurrent use of H2-receptor antagonists (cimetidine, famotidine, ranitidine) had no significant effect on hydromorphone steady-state pharmacokinetics. ...
