HowardCould seven hundred mg possibly be an ok dose? I am still in pain even at this strength but it beats the alternative! Thanks to all who responded to my former question
about tramadol today:) It is so reassuring to connect with real people---- I have been scared to tell anyone what I'm dealing with.
Devoraonly take what is prescribed on the bottle.
tramadol is a low dose pain medication, (the least addictive narcotic of them all) and if you have a lot of pain there are many other medications out there your doctor can put you on. you don't want to risk a seizure or other effects to your body.please call & make an appointment w/ your doctor asap!!!
KermitIt's either 400 mgs or 800 mgs, I'm not sure which. I think 400, though. Anything above that and you're at a greater risk for seizures.
WilburnYou should only take, what it Say's on the bottle of medication...if the pain medication isn't working for you, you need to go back to the doctor and let him know...maybe there is something else he can prescribe.....good luck
ClaudineI think I saw your question earlier that you were concerned that you were addicted to Ultram (tramadol). That is possible infact there has been some speculation that it could possibley be changed to a controled medication. If you are still having pain after taking the reccomened dose call your Doctor. You may need to have something else for your pain. Tell your Doctor your concerns about tramadol being addictive. That way they can work with you in prescribing medication to help you.
