Buprenorphine hydrochloride is a parenteral opioid analgesic with 0.3 mg buprenorphine being approximately equivalent to 10 mg morphine sulfate.
Morphine milligram equivalents (MME) or morphine equivalent doses (MED) The relation between dosage and overdose risk is different for buprenorphine.
Buprenorphine → Morphine. 1:100. Morphine → Hydromorphone. 5:1. Oxycodone Equivalent doses are based on the 24 hour dose of fentanyl or buprenorphine
SL buprenorphine is about 80 times more potent than PO morphine;. 36,52 in round figures, 400microgram SL buprenorphine is equivalent to 30mg PO morphine.
