User Reviews for Tramadol

bad dreams, waking up and feeling like i don't care about anything, and i take an anit depre medicne.

Worked great. I could do everything i need to do. But the new doc i was given at the clinc took me off it. cold turky. and put me on gabapentin. whatever. no medical. so i guess i have no choice.

This drug is effective sometimes. I have to take two pills or it will not work and it also makes me very drowsy and tired. I take it for bursitis and as long as I take it every 6 hours it really helps with the pain.

Overall I'm satisfied because I no longer wake up in severe pain, it has been wonderful to function in everyday life again w/o the pain.

Taken with excedrin it really help, I remain alert, not drugged or groggy. Pain is not totally gone, but managible.

After replacing my Darvon with this medication, one tablet (perscribed to take 4 times a day) raised my blood sugar level 100+ points. Use caution if you are diabetic.

I have been on Tramadol Ultram 50 mg going on 10 yrs.I find it weird that my experience is opposite of sleep, I get very energetic and focused. I take 3 in Morning before work and I am off to the races.My Mom and Brother also have same effects.Amazing

WHEN TAKEN AT NIGHT BEFORE BED, SOMETIMES I WILL WAKE UP WITH A HEADACHE.

Use tramadol for break through pain due to Psoriatic Arthritis. It helps me sleep but I itch all night. In morning I sometimes have a pounding headache and can be quite nauseated if get up too fast. Only rarely use. Be careful.

wake up with headache

i found no of pain when taking tramadol,i did find it worked a litttle better when taken with 800 mg.ibuprophen,basically taking both drugs together cut the pain for only couple hours!i would suggest it to be used for very moderate pain

ALWAYS refused PAIN MEDS and never narcotics but needed pain relief due to back injury and intense back surgery. I do not take ULTRAM in the high dosage recommended by physician, but keep the dosage at a minimum level to keep pain manageable (25 mg twice a day). This allows movement to recover from surgery. And this is from a TOTALLY NATURAL NO=MEDS LADY.

I was prescribed 50mg every 6 hrs. Used 1 pill the first time and thought I was on crack. I liked the energy, but it gave me a feeling of anxiety. Over time that has disappeared. I can now use up to 2 1/2 pills at one time. The tolerance is going up but that is after taking it over a year. It takes away all headaches and muscle pain from Fibro Myalgia. I don't care about addiction, I would rather live pain free and enjoy the "happy" feeling I get when using it. Don't drink alcohol at all and the only other meds I have is Firocet and xanax/valium. Don't need the last two now that I have the Tramadol. It will work differently with everyone. For the most part it is a life saver for me. If I use too much at once I do get over anxious. So take as prescribed. I have never had to take more than 2 1/2 per day. If I decide to stop I will go down gradually. I do not wish to experience any withdrawals. I get worse withdrawals from sugar!!!! Tramadol causes some itchiness but thats about it. This drug beats oxycontin and others that make people rob banks and pharmacies to get it.

Has worked reasonably well for moderate Osteo-arthritis pain, however has become less effective over a years use. Does not control flare up pain. Was using Vicodin with great pain control buy after years of use, It caused a stomach ulcer. No ucler flare ups with this medication.

On medication for several months for arthritis pain. Have no noticeable side effect that affect my day to day activity..work full time using my hands. Works great. Notice that some are complaining of interaction with other medication. Make sure all your meds are from the same pharmacy and your pharmacist goes over any new medication with you before filling new prescriptions. The pharmacist, not the doctor, know the medication best.

I have been on Tramadol since August for neck pain take it at night for sleep.I have been experiencing muscle weakness in extremities and it has gotton worse past 2 weeks dizziness bowel issues but weakness in grip I am50 yrs old I feel like I am 90 going up stairs stopped taking med 2 days ago

I take this med for cronic low back pain due to Ankylosing Spondylitis. I've been on 50mg 2x daily for over a year. I'm able to function normally and have no side effects. It doesn't completely help for the acute flares but all in all, it's great.

perhaps it isnt strong enouh .i am on the lowest dose. time will tell. does help.used for head aches and nerve damage in my legs.
