My doctor gave me a scrip for 180 tramadol is it more dangerous than other painkillers?

Ethelyn

I have had a bad back for years and told my doc that I don't want anything real strong because I still have to function at work. But after reading a little about possible side effects it seems to be worse than taking an opioid. Has anyone taken this stuff and is it worth it?

I was prescribed tramadol (zydol) about 6 years ago, I was about 16 at the time, for lower back pain following surgery on a herniated disc. I started to take less as the pain decreased but it had horrible side effects. I was so addicted to them I got the shakes and couldn't sleep at all. Then last year I was prescribed the same again under a different generic name; not realising what they were I had a repeat of what had happened. They are a great pain killer but I'd seriously advise staying away from them,I take tylex now, which are a mixture of 500mg paracetamol 30mg codeine in each capsule. I find they work great and yes even though the codeine is slightly addictive, its not a fraction as bad as the tramadol.

Tramadol will make your back stop hurting, and make you useless.Don't drive, don't drink beer, don't mow the lawn. Just stay in one place, and plan on staying there for a lot of hours.It will stop the pain. Unless your work is watching TV, you won't function very well at all.- Stuart

Personally, I would say that if you have a bad back you should take it.But if you can take 1 week free from work, do it.

They are way overrated. Kills no pain, has horrible side effects. This is a bad joke for people really looking for true pain relief.

my dad was prescribed it but won't take it. he doesn't like the way it feels to be on them.

How much is tramadol 50mg worth on the streets?

Valentin

just curious..=)

I'm pretty sure that Yahoo! Answers has contacted the DEA.Expect weird noises on the phone when you talk, they are tapping into your phones.Be aware of new furniture in your house, they are watching you.Be aware of that cleaners van down the street, they are watching you.Be aware of your next door neighbor offering you cookies, he/she are part of the CIA, your real neighbors were offered 1.1 million dollars, and a new home in the Bahamas, courtesy of the United States of America.the CIA is everywhere, so is the DEA.

pretty sure Tony Montana didn't have the CIA on him though...

I would not give you a penny for it. I just finished taking it for a month for my pain and it did no more than a candy bar. You can keep it.

Wow This is not a question that should be asked on a site like this or any other site for that matter. The only price your gonna pay is time in prison. Or who ever you are finding this information for. Do not pass go and do lose your freedom. So beofre anyone posts and gives even a close answer to this just stop and think before posting.

tramadol sucks and causes brain damage in high doses...



Gavin

nothing its not even a benzo



Estell

To be honest zero, you may be able to work something out with the kiddies but tramadol has no value on the street.

Does anyone have any experience taking tramadol amp hydrocodone together? i have a kidney stone and need relief

Jacqueline

I took the tramadol about 5 hours ago and I am still hurting. I am scared of bad side effects. I have googled and came up with conflicting answers. Does anyone have any experience with these pain relivers? Thanks so much!



Hope

tramadol you can take every 6 hrs so if in ur 5th hr you were still hurting taking the hydrocodone would be ok if you have taken narcotic pain relivers before and tolarate them well but dont take both of them at the same time because i know like before i have been told take oxycotin and percocett for the break thru pain so i believe u can take hydrocodone every 4-6 just try to keep on top of the pain dont take them both togther hydrocodone is stronger just take that and cut out the tramdol do that till monday and see the docter and what he recommends or if u dont beleive the ppl on here you can call a local er and ask



Lorenza

you can take both together... i take both for back pain and it works just fine.. If you take these meds for a long pierod though you will want to take Milk Thistle to help clean your liver.



Giuseppe

Go. To. The. Doctor. Monday.Or if you can't wait until Monday because it is that bad, you may consider going to the hospital. Are you really going to listen to advice of people you don't even know? They might say it's ok all day long, but there might be something they don't know about your health history that could end up hurting you if you do it. Just wait out the pain if you can, until you can get to the doctor. Otherwise, consult someone at your local hospital.



Hester

you may take them together. you may feel tired but you will get a lot of pain relief.i, too, am on tramadol, but i also take methadone. i am trying to get off everything but it isn't working very well. i hope you will feel better soon, and as soon as you can stop taking everything, or you too, will be all strung out like i am, i hate it so much!



Carola

My husband had a really bad break in his left leg and took both at the same time by accident. (Took the hydrocodone, forgot, and then took the tramadol.) He ended up with a terrible stomach ache and a high feeling for 6 hours. I am so sorry you are hurting, but I don't suggest taking them together. Can you use a hot pack or something? Take a bath? I know that kind of thing probably doesn't help, but it's better than the side effects of both pain killers....Good luck!



Fae

ive suffered from numerous kidney stones. a few ive ended up in the ER for, a couple i took care of at home simply by drinking alot of beer. it numbs the pain and pushes alot of fluid through. sounds stupid, but it really does the trick. ah, please note... dont take my advice and remain medicated... thats a bad bad idea.



Moshe

You will be absolutely fine as far as the mixing of the 2 goes. Alot of people that I know from Pain Management take Tramadol to supplement another main pain reliever that they are taking. I take 10mg methadone along with either 50 or 100mg of tramadol depending on my pain level.Just be aware that you are adding more to the mix and you will feel a little more groggy Hope you feel better soon!!



Hisako

Probably ok to mix them, but be careful that you don't take more than a couple each.
