Rarely: On feb, 8, 2014: 9, 181 people reported to have side effects when taking dilaudid. Among them, 7 people (0.08%) have bipolar disorder. This is 7 out of 9, 181 people who have actually reported side effects to the fda. This is 7 out of the total number of people who have taken Dilaudid up until this point who have taken Dilaudid in the us. Therefor the risk is probably even lower than 0.08%.
