User Reviews for Tramadol

i would begin just by saying dont take it. i have been addicted to just about every street drug out there over the course of my life and i can truly say that tramadol is the most addictive and the withdrawls are worse than herion. i dont understand the pharmacology involved to make it what it is and i wont even describe the high it gives you, maybe it works differently on people with past drug problems my mom takes it every once in awhile but she isnt an addict like me. i have been off of drugs for 6 months now but now i'm on luvox just to try to get my messed up brain chemistry in balance. stay away from this drug please. worst withdrawls of my life. magnify a herion or meth withdrawl a million times and you get a tramadol withdrawl. please pray for me. thank you and god bless.Read More Read Less

My doctor prescribed Tramadol for my bulging disc and I ended up having a seizure. It also interacts with antidepressants. I strongly urge anyone to think twice before taking this medication at all, but especially if you are taking antidepressants.

I'am taking this medication for ostoarthitis.But I do worry because I'am also on an antidepressent.Do you have any thoughts on this.Thank-you

Ive been on tremadol for a few months and I have already been in the hospital twice for a seizure. You question yourself when how many to take because you really dont know how many it takes before a seizure occurs. It could be only two 50mg or the full six.

I started taking this medication after my doctor took me off of narcotics, i.e. oxycodone, hydrocodone. Helps with the pain but feel it is addictive. Seems like it should be classified as a narcotic or controlled substance. Have had withdrawal sympstoms when I ran out. Still, not as severe as withdrawal from oxycodone.

I'm in the hospital recovering from a seizure from this med.

Having 3 different kinds of Arthritis, this medicine takes the pain away, but it leaves me itching all over and seems to make me restless sometimes at night.

You absolutely can become dependent on this synthetic non-narcotic drug and the side effects are worse than narcotics as are the withdrawel symptoms, actually the withdrawel symptoms are worse on tramadol. Make sure you really need this medication before you take it and beware of the side effects, I had a seizure after taking two 50 mg, tablets for a migraine. I am back on vicodin and neurontin, the side effects are nothing compared to tramadol. IF YOUR DOCTOR TELLS YOU THESE ARE NOT ADDICTIVE READ ALL OF THESE REVIEWS AND FIGURE OUT FOR YOURSELF!THIS DRUG IS DANGEROUS AND I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND TO MY ANYONE EVER! GOD BLESSRead More Read Less

this medication is the only one that actually takes the pain away in my lower back. I have a hurniated disc and this is a miracle drug and it gives you a burst of energy

This is an ineffective medication for pain.

I have had trouble with a herniated disc and took this after having trouble with Norco (makes me vomit). The Tramadol was much, much more effective for my pain, and I quickly acclimated to it. However, after a few weeks I started having some very strange symptoms- muscle pain, anxiety, adrenaline rushes, fainting, etc. After all sorts of tests, nothing could be found to account for these symptoms, until I went off the Tramadol and all these symptoms stopped. Now I am back to trying to control my pain with different pain meds. I wish I could have stayed on the Tramadol.Read More Read Less

works well as a medication for arthritic pain but feel like I'm floating around the room and itching all over. Do not even think about driving while on this stuff.

I had been taking vicoden ES and with time this medication gave me more pain relief I did have headaches for a few months though

I felt like I was floating on air several hours after taking this drug..I also had a severe itch all over body! possible allergy reaction maybe.

I suffer from chronic abdominal and pelvic pain. This is the only drug that seems to numb the pain enough to make it manageable.
