Strength of Dihydrocodeine vs. Hydrocodone
      #169158 - 06/16/04 03:12 PM

Anyone know the approximate equivalant of 60mg dihydrocodeine compared to 10mg hydro? i.e., 60mg dhc = 5mg hydro...or something like that?

I've always heard that dhc is somewhere in between codeine and hydrocodone as far as strength, or something close to that.

Info
dihydrocodeine is approx 2x the strength of codeine.
60mg would be approx equal to 120mg of codeine.

Here is a converter globalrph

Per that link... dihydrocodeine 60mg is approx equal to 12mg of hydrocodone.

(I may have not done the conversion correctly as I do not believe the result. Need to check it yourself. )
