User Reviews for Tramadol

Had extra pain in hand and wrist waiting for surgery for carpel tunnel. Doctor prescribed this.

Was on Norco 10/325 for several years. OA lower back and bulging disc. No DR's want to write scripts for it anymore. Hmmmmm....... I wonder why. I weened off of it, started Tramadol at the same time. Got to admit, it works better than Norco! i have no pain, unless i sit too long. I'm lucky, no awful side effects. Makes me feel energetic actually. Only thing, one 50mg lasts about 3 hours, not 6 as prescribed.

control of chronic back pain

sprained my back playing basketball and the doctor prescribed this to me...works very well

This medication works great for my arthritis in my spine. Does not even touch my headache pain.

I had a total knee replacement and was on opiate type medications.I have been on opiate meds for some time and their effectiveness has diminished. This medication worked great for me, no side effects at all.

While taking this for pain in my back and knees I have found out that it helps with my restless leg problems also.

In the past, I used this for pain related to a stomach ulcer. Recently, I fell and hurt my shoulder which is still bothering me. It is not so effective for the muscle and joint pain. I am afraid to use it in the long term, because I don't want to become dependent on it

This medication works best for my chronic pain from fibromyalgia and osteoarthrits. I have not found relief from other meds as I have from Tramadol or Tramacet. Very satisfied but not happy that here in Canada it is not recognized as the drug of choice and is not covered by our drug plan in BC. Would much rather take Tramadol than Percocet or Codeine (T3's) and feel it is much safer. I do not take it every day unless I have to. If I have to go out shopping I take it before and it helps me get thru my time away from home otherwise I may not be able to go out.Read More Read Less

I have knee replacement a year ago and this takes the edge off. I also have arthritis and tramadol does the trick- one a day

Taken for pain and although helpful it can cause me headaches.

severe dizziness, Flu like symptoms,feel like throwing up severe, drowsiness severe

I take 5 tablets a day, and it does releive the pain. I feel healthy and well when I take it. However, it wears off, of course, most durgs do, and because it is habit forming, that is a worry. I would like to know what others are taking,and how they feel, and how do those feel who are taking Tramadol

I take this for a ruptured L4 S1 and sciatica, at first it was alright but now that I have been taking it for a while its not as effective. I do know that if you don't take it on time your pain will flare up so bad you will wished you had taken it sooner.

is this an nsaid...will it cause bleeding similar to aspirin

this medicine helps me to reduce my pain body and stay alert on the job to stimulate me to enjoy myself. I am really happy to take this because keep my mood and my thinking clear and talk more.
