Why is tramadol not a scheduled drug?

Ardelle

I think that tramadol could be such a addicting and dangerous drug, why isnt it classified as a narcotic?



Darcey

Tramadol is not a classic opioid (morphine-like) analgesic. It does not have the same addictive or abusive potential as classic opioids.It does have it's own risks and contraindications (see PDR below).Overall, it is safer and with less abuse. I prescribe it frequently.

Darcey

Because it isn't a narcotic. Tramadol actually acts like the drug Narcan when taken with narcotics. It can be habit forming, both physiologically and psychologically. You do need a prescription to get it, and the patient should be slowly weened of it.

What is the difference between vicodin and tramadol?

Patience

I have been taking vicodin for a while for back pain/headaches. I am thinking about switching to tramadol because it is cheaper and easier to get. What is the difference between the two?



Augustine

Vicodin is a combination of Tylenol and Hydrocodone bitartrate which is an opioid analgesic and antitussive with unknown mechanism of action but it is thought to be related to the presence of opiate receptors in the central nervous system. It has an action similar to those of codeine which mostly involve the CNS and smooth muscle .Tramodol is a centrally-acting opioid analgesic that exerts its effect through the inhibition of norepinephrine and serotonin reuptake .Both are used for acute and chronic pain, and both have addiction potential. If your MD is prescibing these medications for you, either should be readily available at your pharmacy. Take precaution whe using Vicodin, because of the Tylenol content. Tylenol is toxic to the body if you take an excessive of 3000-4000mg per day. Also, I would suggest you talk to your MD about non-narcotic medications that may prevent you fom getting headaches. Beta blockers, Tricyclic antidepressants, Valproic Acid, Calcium channel blockers and Topamax are all known to have some measure of effectiveness in preventing chronic daily headaches. As with any medication, please use with caution, and under the supervision of an MD.



Greta

there is a huge difference between vicodin and tramadol, Tramadol is very weak and if you have severe or really even moderate pain. it wont help that much at all. I definatley would pay the extra, its worth it

Corrine

why switch?...get hydrocodone,same as vicodin but the generic version.



Jewell

Why is it easier to get both require a prescription. you can get generic vicodin .just like tramadol is generic for ultram.but both can be addictive



Darrick

Yes, you will have withdrawl symptoms if you discontinue Vicodin. Taper your dose slowly, and take the Tramdol as prescribed. You can take them together, it works pretty well. I took Tramdol for a while with OxyContin, but I had to discontinue the Tramdol due to seizures. No one connected the two until my third seizure.
