User Reviews for Tramadol

Did not work at all.

I was gived Tramadol for pain. It has really helped me. It does not make me as sleepy as Vicodin. I can get on with my life. The only side effect that I have been experiencing is sweating.

does not help my pain

I have been on Tramadol for chronic/classic Migraine headaches. I have found that taking this medication at the Dr's prescribed dosage only keeps the pain (at bay) for a short period. Since starting this med, I have experienced 2 headaches within 2 weeks time. One lasting 55 hours at a level 10 pain scale and the other lasted 48 hours on a 8 to 10 pain scale. This also gives me nauseu when taking 100 millagrams every 4 to 6 hours and have to take Zofram to keep from getting sick. THERE IS NOTHING WORSE THAN THROWING UP WITH A LEVEL 10 MIGRAINE....Read More Read Less

Two side effects that I'm experiencing with this medication...feeling sleepy but can't actually get to sleep and itching. After I take it, I get the "itches" everywhere. Anyone else have these side effects?

i take 50mg 4 times a day,i have been useing tramadol for about 3 mounths this med does nothing for me!

Having been taking trammadol(along w/ Celebrex) since it came out on the market about 10-12 yrs ago. Have osteoarthritis, RA, and fibro & my rheumo MD wanted me to try this since I had gastric reflux. Was told it acted like opitate on pain receptors, possibly addictive; couldn't tolerate narcotics. Trammadol and Celebrex worked even better than narcotics for pain after knee replacement! The side effects are worth it to function daily and I am not groggy!

i take tramadol 50mg. every 8 hours. does not seem to do anything. i was on darvocet 100/650 until they took them off the market. i had a broken back and have chronic pain.

i was given this for r/a and fybro does not work at all causea headaches and withdrawl if not taken

I am a 22 year old with fibromialgia I live my life on a 4 to 7 pain level daily.... I have been on all the main fibro drugs cymbalta lyirca and such the all had no effect on my pain and gave me intense side-effects... I take this drug 1 to 2 50 mg pills 2 to 3 times a day depending on pain.... it cuts my pain in half to make my life manageable so I can function and live my life and work, I get dizzy some times but that's about it.

did not work!!

Went on this med and found that alot of other meds were useless. This has helped me immensliy. Not with my spelling tho...

I just felt the need to warn people about this drug... I said I wanted something for my back pain that was non-narcotic, so they gave me Tramadol 50mg. They said it was safe for long them use as well. DONT TAKE IT for more than a week! It is extremely addictive! It may not be classified as a narcotic, but it tricks your brain in to thinking it is. I was told that by a physician recently. Coming off of this drug has been a nightmare for me, and I thought I was weaning! Once they were gone, I couldnt sleep AT aLL! Every bone in my body felt like it had fingernail files scratching it. I couldnt even stay still. I would get up and walk around the house half the night. I have 2 children, so no sleep is not good. Please take what Ive shared in to consideration before taking this drug for long term use!! Its so not worth it!!Read More Read Less

Initially this worked for me, however, I have been taking this for several years. Originally for chronic back pain and now for fibromyalgia - I use it to maintain my pain levels, but find myself using Lortab more frequently for breakthrough pains. Obviously I have taken this for many years and it is possible that is why it is not as effective as it once was. I consider this my "low level" pain med. I don't experience nauseau or headaches like I once did with it, but know that they can be extreme for some. Read More Read Less

Tramadol does not change my mood like other addictive narcotics. I was on Ultram which is the 150mg time release but the cheapest I could find was $120 for 30 pills at Sam's Club. Crazy cost. I convinced my Dr. To prescribe me 90 pills of 50 mg and I can take 3 a day at intervals. I can also take two at a time with bad back pain at times. Pain will 90% go away with 2 pills of 50 mg. Tramadol does not make me loopy. Also, Sam's Club sells 90 day supply og 50 mg for a measly $11. By the way, Tramadol is not a narcotic and it is not addictive. I am proof. I've been on it for 13 months now and actually forget to take it with me on trips. I don't think if i was addicted, I would forget it. Most likely if addicted I would treasure it's close proximity. I hope this helps. Read More Read Less
