User Reviews for Tramadol

was perscribed this for a toothache and it didnt help at all....still had constant pain it didnt touch so i thought if i up'ed the dose and took more it would help which did help until i took too many and got really sick....throwing up, diarreah, massive headache....anyway wouldnt recommend this to anyone and it has major withdrawal symptoms after why bother?

Since being on Tramadol HCL 50mg 1 tab 4 times a day,I believe my Dr. may need to give me a stronger prescription.I was in a Bad car accident 21 years ago,ass the years keep going on My heath worsens,I'am in pain 24/7.Had Back surgery ,need another if my next back injection does not help,(had so many)had 3 mini Strokes in the last 2 years.migrains,high blood pressure,I could go on and on

I've been on this drug for 12 years. I contracted lyme diease and then fibromyagia. It helps if you take it on time every day. If it wasn't for this medication I be in bed every day.I'm also on soma, antidepresant. and a sleeping pill. If it wasn't for this I couldn't deal with life. Thank god I have a dr. who gets it.I'm not interested in hard core pain pills. then you'll be in trouble. save those for when your dying. I

The only problem i have is blurry eyes and floaters in front of my eyes.

YES, IT WORKS BUT I AM HAVING WITHDRAWAL SYMPTONS TRYING TO GET OFF OF IT.LIKE, NOT SLEEPING FOR 2 DAYS , SHAKING LIMBS ALL DAY AND NIGHT. I HAVE TOOK IT FOR 3 MONTHS, AND DON'T LIKE THE FEELING IT GIVES ME, HEADACHES AND RESTLESSNESS IS HORRIBLE WILL NEVER TRY IT AGAIN. WAS TAKING IT FOR ARTHRITIS, BURRSITIS, NOT WORTH THE SIDE EFFECTS. AM NOW USING EXTRA STRENGTH, TYLENOL WILL SEE HOW THAT WORKS, I WILL BOT TAKE MUCH OF IT..

really does not help a lot and constipation is a real problem had to go to this because meloxicam was really hurting me and this has not as of yet

Following a five month stay in hospital and extensive surgery it left me with ongoing severe pain. This drug works well but oonly nims the limb slightly overall though without it my pain is far more acute

After many years and a variety of medications for fibromyalgia (neurontin, SNRI's, SSRI's, vicodin, etc), a doctor prescribed tramadol for me. She started me on a very low dose (one half of a 50 mg tab), which does work if the pain is not too bad. I take as much as 50 mg tid if I'm having a bad day, but often find that "boosting" the ultram with a 200 mg ibuprofen is all that's necessary to keep me feeling functional. I've not had the addiction issues others have mentioned (thank God!) but I am very careful with any meds I take so that my body does become acclimated to them. For me, tramadol keeps me going. I'm not 100%, but I am doing LOTS better than I have in the past 10 years. I highly recommend this med, but do caution people to be aware of how their bodies react to it.Read More Read Less

i startes this med. 5 years ago for help with migrains and joint pain. I have taken it 4 to 6 days a week,taking as many as 10 tabs. a day i have never had and side affects, but over the last year have found i am taking more for the same pain releaf. i have found if i need to stop or go off this med. YOU HAVE TO GO OFF SLOW or you will feel with drawll. start with skiping 1 dose a day for 4 days then go down 2 doses for 6 days and so on with each reduction add two days between changes this should help with side effects.Read More Read Less

I was in an auto accident and have rods in my back, femur, knee, and foot. Tramadol takes my chronic pain away, but doesnt last very long. I have to keep taking them every 4 hours and end up running out. This drug DOES cause withdrawl: diareah, restless legs, nasuea, irritability,etc. It works for pain but is tough to come off of.

I have to make sure I do eat something or I tend to get sleepy, but it has helped with osteoarthritis especially with hips.

I prefer this drug for pain rather than norcol because Norcol makes me irritable and sleepy, Tramodol is very effective for controlling pain with no side affects.
