Tramadol pain killers after experation date?

Elsa

I have a bottle of tramadol 50 mg. a pretty nice pain killer. it says use before 1/1/07 =/ what happens if i take on now? are they still good?

They won't hurt but might not be as effective.

I couldnt see why not. Ive been on Morphine and Percocets for the past few years and I had some pills I left in a container in my drawer that I found a couple years after I got them and they worked just as good as new..

I wouldn't recommend taking any type of expired medication. But to get a proper and reliable answer, check with a pharmacist.

They won't be as effective, that is why they have a date on them at all. I'd throw them out. If you need to take a pain med then call your doctor to get a new prescription. You can get 50 Tramadol for only $4 at most stores so it's not like it's an expensive med to get.

If i get randomly selected for a drug test is the prescription still vaild .i do not regularly take any kind of pain killers but i am having back issues and they seem to help but do not want to risk my job .

It will show up as an opioid and in my opinion, as someone who has been responsible for evaluating drug test results, if you had an old prescription and used it for pain occasionally, that would not be considered failing the test.

What would be the effects of taking tramadol 50 mg?

on a person who didnt need it (was not perscribed it)? what about taking more than one 50 mg pill?

you'll get a little pain relief. If you take 3-4, you will feel really nice. I take tramadol regularly. They can get you high, like as pain killers can. It acts on your brain like an opiate does. Wikipedia has great information on it. The first time I took 4, me and a friend both did. We felt really warm and floaty i guess and felt like laying down and listening to music.

If the person is an epileptic patient then it is contraindicated as it can precipitate seizures . Other effects include nausea and vomiting . No effects would be observed on cardiovacular or respiratory system unlike other opiod drugs :)
