User Reviews for Tramadol

DOES NOT WORK AT ALL!!!!!!!!

i had knee pain and was awaiting surgery. I took tramadol and with in a few hours started having trouble walking, moving either arm or hand was almost impossible. i got a severe headache and had what seemed to be restless leg sydrom all over my body.

I HAVE OSTEOARTHRITIS, AND NEED KNEE REPLACMENT. I HAVE TRIED OTHER MEDS, WITH NO REDUCTION OF PAIN. SINCE BEING ON TRAMADOL, I HAVE NOTICED GREAT RELIEF OF PAIN, & AM ABLE TOMOVE AROUND BETTER & SLEEP A LITTLE BETTER.

addiction to it had withdrawals

IT DOES NOT HELP WITH MY PAIN,AND THE SIDE EFFECTS ARE JUST AS BAD AS THE PAIN....I HAVE BEEN TAKING IT FOR OVER TWO YEARS....

they do not work for degenerative disk disorder

I have broken out in a rash on my face... I haven't taken this drug for 4 years

The doctor prescribed 4 a day. I took one in the morning, had no pain relief but was hyperactive. Took one later because I thought it needed to build up in my bloodstream. An hour later started to sweat, volmited several times and was better in a few hours. I am afraid to take anymore but will talk to the doctor next week.

I have degenerated disk L4 L5 and surrounding areas. I have tried everything. Darvocet worked tremendous and it is a shame it is off the market. Vicoden does not work and leaves me feeling drugged. I tried Tramadol and so far I really like it. It helps the pain and does not make me feel tired and drugged. I am sad to hear of the adverse effects it has had on some. I recommend it but like any other drug it either will or will not set with your personal bodily dynamics

What if you want to stop taking due to it becoming addictive if taking more than two years?

I took a half of a tablet of tramadol to see how I would tolerate it. About an hour and a half later, I began to have severe nausea, shaking, and dizziness. I also had a very dry mouth and extreme fatigue along with some weird itching sensations. Needless to say, I did not tolerate it very well and will not continue to take it; however, it worked very well on my pain. The pharmacist did tell me that such side effects are rare and most people can use it without any problems. I guess I am not one of those people! Read More Read Less

I stopped taking tramadol. It had terrible side effects, loss of my hair, nausea, dizzy,eventually caused pain. I took it about 8 months and was feeling terrible. Now I take vicodin when needed. It is a much better drug and has fewer side effects.

i have been taking this med 50mg. for 1 week. chronic insomnia due to severe back pain and it helps with the pain but causes nausea, headaches and sleeplessness. i have insomnia to begin with and this made it worse. i recommend taking it during the day but not at hour of sleep and keeping your belly full and drink plenty of water.

It worked for a while, but really don't need it now as I have had other treatments that worked better. Now I find I have to wean myself off because if I just discontinue use I get flu-like symptoms. If I had to do it all over again, I would not take it.

I took this medication about 16 years ago when I fell through a rotten floor. I am a Diabetic and had severe pain in my leg and spine. In 1993 I started taking it for severe chronic pain probably due to Fibromyalgia. It not only relieves my pain but for more reason gives me energy.

My vet prescribed Tramadol for my 13 year-old Beagle who has severe arthritis. In the three months he has been taking this drug it has helped him to become active again. I don't believe that he experiences any of the side effects listed, although it would be nearly impossible to tell.

The doctor who saw me about my broken hand prescribed this medicine. This is garbage. Ibuprofen works just as well.

Pinched siatic nerve better of taking childrens tylenol than this crap called tramadol, absolutely nothing.
