Has anyone ever became addicted to tramadol?

Harlan

i'm asking because i was addicted to vicodin for a long time and now i'm on tramadol and get a buzz off of it. the last thing i want is to be addicted to another pain killer. i take this for my osteo arthritis. any thoughts on this matter?



Darell

Yeah it does give you a buzz. OA is really painful as you well know, but I suppose most of the painkillers that are effective probably can get addictive. The trouble is, your OA won't go away so you will probably always need painkillers from time to time. he best thing to do is to talk to your doctor, who may be able to monitor you more closely? There are doctors specializing in chronic pain that may be able to prescribe exactly what's right for you.



Hue

tramadol is very bad for you . i use to be on xanax and i got addicting to it and then i switch to tramadol and the same thing happen . What i did do is take half of it and maybe take it every other day but not every day .



Loyce

OH my god yes!!!!!!!!!!!!! go to google type in DynoDiKk helium and ultram and read my articles and answers on this CRAP DRUG! It is addicting, it is a narcotic! It works either MU-1 Or MU-2 opiates receptors just like codiene and it is a weak serotonin reuptake inhibitor, the precursor to dopamine and cocaine is a dopamine reuptake inhibitor! This drug is HELL to get off of and go on real opiate pain killers man! Read my articles, too much for me to write all over again. I will give you the link to the helium article. Your better off being addicted to real pain killers like Hydro and Oxy! This is a brain drug too mon! www.helium.com/items/1125105-sabbathmusic-and-dynodikk-on-ultramThe bad thing about Ultram is your withdrawing off two drugs. This drug SUCKS! and docs still tell their patients it is not addicting? Ultram in the future is going to be making attorneys a lot of cash in the future!



Donnetta

If you have a history of addiction, you are likely to be addicted. You should discuss this with your doctor and maybe he can change your medication. The longer you take something, the more likely you are to get addicted.

Liz

I was given tramadol during an injury and have taken it every since. What do I need to do to stop. Mood swings and temper appear when it is not taken daily.

I take 120 a month and I know I'm addicted. This is the weird part though,you are supposed to be addicted. Doctors who prescribe pain meds realize that your going to need the medication on a daily basis and that you will not be able to stop cold turkey. Most pain,anxiety, and depression medications require a tapering down period. If you are addicted to Tramadol and you don't want to be then taper down. I am addicted to three drugs and I don't plan on stopping until I start exceeding my prescription or they stop working. Everyone who takes narcotic pain medication for long periods of time are addicted but they are not necessarily addicts. They are taking medication that causes physical withdrawal when stopped abruptly. The same can be said about tramadol. 50 a month is a small dose and as long as you don't need more I would keep taking them IF they work. If they don't help your pain and you take them to feel comfortable in your own skin then you may need to see your doctor for a new prescription of something else.

My dog and i both get prescribed tramadol?

Aldo

I know it makes me high, when she takes it (the dog) she seems happier and spunkier than normal so I was wondering if it makes her high too



Brendon

Tramadol does nothing for some people, like the first answer stated, but it causes a very pleasant euphoria for others. I get sort of high from the amount that I'm prescribed. It is a stripped down analog of codeine and as such it does hit on opiate receptors and is an opioid. For whatever reason, it can be completely ineffective for 60-70% of people that take it, that's a fact. As for pets, I disagree with the previous answer from the vet. I worked at a local kennel, mostly cleaning up crap, but also watching vets care for the dogs and cats. I saw dogs act elated after a dose of Tramadol. Some seemed drowsy and others seemed fairly normal, but with a little more tail wagging. I'm sure she is way more experienced then me, but i think they get high off that doggy dope.



Bessie

I'm not surprised. My vet recommended children's Benadryl for my dog's seasonal allergies and he seems to get pretty zonked out from them. I'm actually more surprised you get a buzz from tramadol. They did absolutely nothing for me after a car accident.. didn't even take away my pain or make me tired and I took the maximum dose that I was allowed.But anyhow, yes, I think the meds could affect the dog in the same way as it does to a human... but it could also be the possibility that she's just happier because her pain (or whatever she was prescribed them for) isn't bothering her anymore.



Bethel

Well if I was in pain and the medication took my pain away then yes I suppose I'd be in a much better mood. That's probably what is happening with your dog.It can affect dogs differently just like it can affect humans differently. Not all people get high from it, and not all dogs feel that way either. My dog was prescribed Tramadol after her surgery to remove a tumor, and she seemed to whine CONSTANTLY when on Tramadol. Now some people would say that was not the meds but her reaction to the pain, only she didn't do that when I withheld the medication... so I'm guessing the meds made her feel loopy in a way that was uncomfortable for her.



Kory

No it does not make them high. Some dogs it can make sleepy. But it does not affect them as it does humans. It is a very widely used pain management medication in vet medicine



Amelia

Do not listen to CVTvette she has no way of knowing. This very well could be from the pain relief. I doubt their have been any studies done to see if this addictive to dogs or if they would seek it out compared to a placebo. Your dog could definitely be getting a little high or notice increased euphoria and comfort just like you. Dogs can behave similarity to humans after given doses of morphine. This vet maybe ill informed about tramadol(the drug companies originally thought it would not produce any euporhia or addictive properties since it wasnt a typical opioid, but they were quite wrong). just look on online forums, i also have personal experience. tramadol is like a cross between Vicodin and codeine but longer acting.

How long does tramadol ultram last when will it expire?

Magdalen

I received 50mg Tramadol from an online pharmacy today. The prescription was filled yesterday (2/22/07). There is not expiration date printed on the bottle though. Approximately what would the expiration date of this medicine be?



Alena

Don't worry about expiration dates on Ultram. According to a government study, most medicines were still good over 10 years after expiration dates. Exceptions are liquids meds and nitroglycerine.www.post-gazette.com/pg/05150/512



Gala

No Date? I buy Tramadol Ultram Online at TramadolUltram.us. tramadolultram.us/Trama . They can get the Tramadol to you Overnight! I would assume that they would be all gone before they would expire.



Adrienne

Get more information on Tramadol Online at tramadolrx.org/ . TramadolRx.Org is there to help you get answers about Tramadol.



Franklyn

drugs usually have a shelf-life of about a year or so. Possibly longer depending where you store it.



Joana

Expiration dates on prescriptions are usually a year after being filled. They will start to lose there effectiveness after that.



Clair

Expiration dates are required by law to be on the label. For prescription drugs, the expiration date is either one year from the day the prescription is filled or the date on the bottle, whatever is first. The manufacturor's expiration date is determined by the last day of their stability testing.



Brittani

there is no answer, short of contacting the pharmacy that filled it and having them tell you. Before you got it, the medications sat in the manufacturers warehouse for who knows how long......then the distributors.....then the Pharmacy.

Will tramadol interact with neurontin orofacial pain medication?

Alejandra

I have tmj and am takinga 300mg capsule of neurontin to manage pain however I used to take tramadol and it worked swell . Tonight I am going for a sleep study and am in much pain and would like a fair study conducted for sleep apnea so I need to know if I can take tramadol now also to eliminate the pain I am in



Sierra

Tramadol has a fantastic synergy with Neurontin (Gabapentin). Combining these two will provide increased pain relief and there are no adverse reactions with combining these two. There are warnings about Tramadol yes. These are related to Tramadol's purported SSRI activity. So it would be risky mixing Tramadol with an SSRI antidepressant or with drugs that lower the seizure threshold (eg. Wellbutrin, Elavil etc.). But with Gabapentin, no. There are a lot of benefits to this combination. As for facial pain medication, I can't answer that unless you tell me the name of the medication.Neurontin has a synergy with other opioids like Morphine and Oxycodone as well. Hope this helps. Here are links to some helpful studies done on this combination:1) content.karger.com/ProdukteDB/pro2) cat.inist.fr/?aModele=afficheN&cp3) www.medscape.com/viewarticle/5022Please remember to always verify the information you get here. You can find these studies via Google, by simply typing in Tramadol and Gabapentin



Luciano

Do you really trust your health to just anyone with a computer and access to Yahoo?? Here is a link that will allow you to check yourself if you should. Use the interaction toolpdrhealth.comI take neurontin and oxycodone every day but I know there are some interaction warnings about tramadol. Seriously, check it out yourself,,don't trust just anyone.And if you are going for a sleep study tonight you shouldn't be taking anything that you haven't been instructed to do prior to the test!! Good luck and good night

How is ultram a narcotic? look it up shes not talking about tramadol?

Dalton

Ultram (tramadol is the generic name) is a narcotic because it blocks the mu-opioid receptor. This is the exact same mechanism of action as morphine, codeine, etc. The main difference is that tramadol is not addictive and isn't associated with quite the same side effects (respiratory depression, bradycardia, constipation).



Emerald

Ultram or Tramadol is NOT a narcotic. Go to 10 different sites and at least 3 will call it a narcotic. The other 7 will call it non-narcotic. I don't want it to become considered a narcotic. I like the fact that people think it is just a weak opioid. This way I can enjoy the sweet euphoria I get from relatively small doses of this unique pill. 627 all day man,627....

Does anyone know what the absolute maximum dose of tramadol a person can take per day?

Howard

Could 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.



Devora

only 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!!!



Kermit

It'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.



Wilburn

You 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



Claudine

I 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.

How long does it take to withdraw from tramadol?

Elaina

I started taking tramadol a few weeks ago and stopped using it after several days before starting back up two weeks ago and quitting again. I thought that I went through a brief withdrawl, but I still feel very depressed and unsure about whether I want to live anymore. I feel depressed all the time and suicidal thoughts are with me every day.



Carmelita

You do have slight w/d from tramadol but the only thing is that you might be feeling some pain now. Its nothing dramatic, what your feeling has no association with w/d from tramadol. You need to see your doctor about these symptoms, they are serious.
