Is it ok to take tums while on tramadol?

Gaston

Tramadol makes me a little queezy is it ok to take a tums to get rid of my upset stomach?



Alba

Yes you can do that. If the Tramadol keeps making you queasy it may be too high a dose for you. I have had the same thing happen to me. I also had nausea for the first day or two when I began Tramadol. Now it doesn't affect me that way anymore.



Casey

This should be ok to do. Best bet: Call the pharmacist.

If ultramtramadol works by attaching to the opiate receptors how does lortab work?

If Ultram/Tramadol works by attaching to the opiate receptors how does lortab work?

Lortab is the brand name for the combination of acetaminophen (Tylenol) and hydrocodone. Lortab is prescribed for moderate to moderately severe pain. Hydrocodone binds to the pain receptors in the brain so that the sensation of pain is reduced. Acetaminophen halts the production of prostaglandins which otherwise cause pain.Lortab is one of the brand names for Hydrocodone...Hydrocodone is a semi-synthetic opiate....so it's binding to the same pain-relieving receptors as the drugs Ultram/Tramadol (even though Ultram/Tramadol is a synthetically produced drug and it's not chemically related to opiates.)

I know of other meds that my DR has give me to EASE off of other meds.. Plz just ask your DR TO HELP YOU- DO not TRY AND DO IT YOURSELF.

The human brain has several different types of opiate receptors. Tramadol mainly affects the MU receptors. Lortab (hydrocodone) affects additional opiate receptors besides the MU receptors. This is why Lortab is more addictive than tramadol.www.rxlist.com/cgi/generic/tramadwww.rxlist.com/cgi/generic/hydroc
