the same dangers of anyone that takes them...except you're not being monitored by a doctor.it's synthetic opioid, which is why it's a perscription only medication.other opiods are heroin, morphine, methodone, codiene.the side effects of Tramadol are:*nausea*vomiting*sweating*constipation*Drowsiness*uncontrollable withdrawal-like nervous tremors if weaning off the medication happens too quickly*Respiratory depression in overdosing *Seizures have been reported in humans receiving excessive single oral doses (700 mg) or large intravenous doses (300 mg)*negative effects on cognitive functioning*negative effects on your personality*addiction

Being an opioid, tramadol carries all possible risks known from other opiates. Tramadol causes respiratory depression, although usually weaker than that seen with other opiates and opioids. Tramadol can cause psychological and physical addiction similar to that of other opiates. Nausea, the possibility of choking on one's own vomit, etc. Those experienced with opiates can probably are familiar with these and will usually be able to handle them.

Any drug that is taken without being prescribed by a doctor can have severe and adverse effects on the body. Many times prescriptions are given to treat ailments and to cure certain illnesses. If you are not prescribed the medicine it could either attack the body in ways that would be very unpleasant or be addictive to the point that you will need treatment to kick the habit. I would strongly advise that if you are having symptoms to which this medication is prescribed, you consult your personal physician or go to your local hospital.

Tramadol and pregnancy anyone take this while pregnant? any more info than what the internet has to offer?

Mariann

I am 12 weeks pregnant. I haven't been taking tramadol much at all, howver the last 3 days I have taken about 3 x per day. I have back pain and something was needed. Is there anyone who knows more about this issue, or has been thru this themselves? What was the outcome? Is there Birth defects involved?

There are no adequate and well controlled studies examining tramadol in pregnant women, therefore tramadol should not be used during pregnancy. Tramadol has been shown to be embryotoxic and fetotoxic in mice. The effect of tramadol, if any, on the later growth, development and functional maturation of the child is unknown.Seeing as you have been taking tramadol only in the last 3 days it cant be for sure that you have caused any damage but I would say its unlikely that you have caused any damage to your baby. However you need to STOP taking tramadol immediately and consult your doctor for alternative pain medication as soon as possible. Don't stress! I understand back pain, particularly during a pregnancy, you had to do some something to relieve the pain but because the effects of tramadol in pregnancy aren't known its safest not to use it and ask the doctor for something else. Good Luck :)

How much to overdose on tramadol?

Armanda

i took 5 50mg tramadol last nite and i still feel sick and have been throwing up today what should i do

tramadol can cause seizures if too many are taken too often.As a narcotic it really barely meets the definition. It binds the the narcotic mu receptor at less than 1/100 the capacity of morphine and it acts more like prozac than a pain reliever.Drinking alcohol increases the seizure risks of tramadol.I don't advocate drug abuse but this abuse of tramadol has more to do with marketing than with actual properties worthy of abuse.
