User Reviews for tramadol oral

I lifted something improper and threw out my back. I had spasms and constant back pain. Took tramadol and the pain is literally gone. This stuff is magic.

Tramadol worked good but there was a time I realised I was dependent on the meds I made a decision to come completely of the meds cold turkey my only problem I have is I can't sleep can anyone tell me how long will it take before my sleep pattern get back to normal. I was on tramadol for restless leg syndrome there not good but I found a supplement that helps greatly along with lidocaine patches. I would appreciate any input as how I can get my sleep pattern back to normal.

Taken 100mg in conjunction with oxycodone 10/325 for over 10 years. Works well. I've had 2 spinal surgeries for stenosis and spondylolisthesis, including a failed spinal fusion. No negative side effects (other than the opioid induced constipation, but that has nothing to do with the tramadol). The horrible side effects I have read on this site are probably due to an allergic reaction to the drug. Even the "wonder drug" penicillin can lead to death if the patient is allergic.

Its Work Very Effective

It doesn’t work for me. I have chronic nerve pain from herniated disc and it doesn’t touch the pain. I literally cannot tell any changes in pain severity at all.

I have had chronic low back pain with episodes of severe sciatic pain for over 20 years. Doctors gave me Vicodin but I had to keep increasing the dose. Also, I was working at a desk job & was missing work because I couldn’t function on the Vicodin. I said no more & my doctor prescribed tramadol. What a blessing! It doesn’t completely relieve the pain, but takes the edge off so I can function. Much better than living my life in a stupor!

This pain killer was prescribed by the orthopedic doctor for injury to the tail bone after I fell of the chair (while standing up on it to reach the high shelf) and could not sleep comfortably or straighten up after bending down low, like to put on shoes, or lift something from the floor. Unfortunately, I experienced an allergic reaction to Tramadol HCI 20mg: Itching in face and upper body after 1st dose, after 2nd dose itches with hives and I felt trouble breathing. I could not risk to continue with it. I had similar experience with a penicillin and sulfa drugs. Read More Read Less

Tramadol has alot of side effects. If your taking it for pain it does very little. Side effects included moodiness, depression, Loss of appetite, nausea.

I had surgery to remove a 4" lipoma from my back under local anesthesia. The Dr had to cut a small piece of my trapezius muscle to remove it all. As he expected, I was experiencing substantial pain as the novacaine was wearing off. I am 71 y/o & am female. Therefore I took 1/4 of the recommended dose. It took the edge off of the sharp pain which was growing intolerable. I figured that I could always take the other 1/2 if needed. I may take 1 whole pill to sleep, as my back is very tender & I might roll over in my sleep. I am allergic to Tylenol, so this is the only opioid thatI does Not have Tylenol. Read More Read Less

I am 52 and in really good shape other than my lower back, which is toast. Although i do get around good. Pain is horrible. Took a 50mg tramadol and in 45 minutes the pain was down to a 3. Makes me a little giddy, but not terrible. Also seems to increase sexual desire as a side effect.

Lower back pain,I just started this medicine hour and a half ago, Tramadol 50 mg tab. It seems to had eased the pain to where I'm able to move around some where I can except what other pain I have now, pain is still their but tolerable, it reads 3 times a day but I will use it only once a day., I am afraid of this meds causing other problems.

I have been taking 200mg 2 times a day and been for 20 years. Very effective and no feeling of being high. Great for spine pain if there is no nerve involvement. This is common with spine pain such as arthritis or degenerative spine conditions. I recently went on to OxyContin and was using 40mg doses. It was what I found was close to Tramadol's effectiveness. I started on 20mg and it didn't work and 40mg did. The up side is your feeling of being high is short and the relief from pain is around 7 hours but Tramadol gave 12 to 14 hours relief with no high feeling. It is good allrounder drug without the addiction that Oxycontin gives.Read More Read Less

I will recommend the 100mg best medication for chronic pains

This medication helped me.

It didn't work for me.

This medication has helped me. The only thing is your body gets used to it and it doesn’t work as well.

I was prescribed Tramadol to take at bedtime to help with pain and to help me sleep as I have broken bone in foot. Pain is somewhat better, mild nausea, and not at all sleepy.

It works well for my Arthritis pain. I found it disturbed my sleep so I take my last dose around 3:00 and am in bed usually by 9:00. I take it three times a day and if the pain is especially bothersome I take two. I don't exceed four a day (half the maximum dose) and have been taking it for several years. I like it at this level because it does not impair my thinking. You don't get "high" at these levels, which is what I am looking for because I like to program computers and don't need anything that interferes with concentration. .Read More Read Less

I am taking Tramadol 50 mgs. for pain every 6 hours and I take it with food and am still extremely loopy and when I take it before bed, when I wake up the next morning, my equallibrium is completely off for about the first hour! I really don't like it!

Moistest pain relief without drossiest. Certainly better than ibuprofen.
