User Reviews for Tramadol

Only require medication if pain from back or head is excessive

It takes a while to get rid of the pain but it affected me in a strange way, i felt really stoned and started acting really loopy. So i only use it when i have very bad pain.

Used after oxycodone affects were too much. Great for pain relief, had no side affects. Will wean off this to ibuprofen in 2 months. Have no complaints.

right know i have the shakes and feel like i have a hang over and also feel cloudy.Tramadol is being used for pain and a mild antidepressant.

IT TOOK PAIN SLIGHTLY AWAY AND MADE ME FEEL A LITTLE SPACEY

given to me for itching relief from atopice dermatitis

I asked not to be put on narcotic pain meds for my chronic lower back, and the docs suggested tramadol. I was previously on the lower dose, which was ineffective. Put on the higher dose it works well as long as I take it in the onset of the pain. On the days my pain is more severe I do have to take additional over-the-counter meds alternately with the tramadol to be effective, but I have to take only what the doctors say will not interfere with the tramadol. Overall I am satisfied with this medicine and prefer it to being on anything stronger. Read More Read Less

I took this for two weeks and could not tell when I started nor when I stopped using it. I also couldn't afford this for my co-pay was 60, no generic that I am aware of. Good Luck!!

was taking 50 ml every 4-5 hours for stenosis caused neuropathy pain down my hip/leg. I wanted to take it longer or until I decided to have more surgery but my GP would not refill another months(100)pills. This really made me upset because I otherwise am taking up to 600mg Ibupr0phen every 6hours to get the same relief. I was taking 1 50mg every 5 hours of Tramadol.That was a week ago and I have only had head buzzing since stopping them. So now I am in pain, the Ibuprophen is affecting my stomach, and am wondering why there is a limit on the Tramadol?! Read More Read Less

I took this for a toothache and ended up with adverse reaction. Unable to walk muscle spasms from my neck to my lower back then into my stomach climbing up my chest. I am better after the emergency room but still after 2 1/2 weeks unable to bend over or stand / sit any length of time. Long time to recover from this. Lucky I am still here.

did not help the pain i wish the doctor would give me back the oxycodone

Have MS, been on Tramadol for over 5 years. Now taking 200mgs daily, 100mg in morning, 100mg in early afternoon. Helps me be able to have life again, increases energy and helps with pain. Cannot take late in day or at night as it will keep me awake. It stops about 1/3 of my pain, the rest I am just stuck with. The best thing about Tramadol is it almost completely stops restless leg syndrome. I was going almost crazy from RLS before I started on Ultram (Tramadol). Now I can sleep with the leg problems I had for years.Read More Read Less

100mg.three times a day worked ok,but after six months,tried to stop taking it,and serouisly thout i was going to go into convultions and die!!!NO JOKE. also,six weeks later i still didnt feel rite.I have mild lite headed feeling with this weard"woofing"sensation in my ears and can feel this in my hands and fore arms!any one els had these semtoms? what will stop it? does it ever go away?

The Dr switched me from Vicodin to this. No way does it help the pain as much. And you have to take so much more to cover the pain. CONSTIPATION is also a big problem with this drug. I have never had the problem before either. Hope to find something better to take soon.

Produce tremor and not been able to sleep.

Works great for pain (back pain) and am completely satisfied except for the minor withdrawel symptoms such as all over achiness.

I have chronic migraines. I have been in and out of hospital. I have had neck and back surgery in the past 6 months. Dr gave me tramadol to take to help control pain. I am also on topamax to help prevent migraines. Tramadol does work for a while but the fatigue is about to take over my life. I also can't sleep when I take it. It also makes me light headed. I thought it was just me but after reading this. I will be talking to my Dr to be finding something different.

it only relieves my pain for an hour or two
