Tramadol
Uses
See also the warning section.
Tramadol is used to help reduce the risk of moderate to severe pain. Tramadol is similar to opioid (alcoholic) analgesic. It works to change the brain how your body feels and responds to the pain.
How To Use Tramadol HCL
Before starting the tramadol, read the medication guide provided by your pharmacist and every time you receive a refill. If you have any questions, ask your doctor or pharmacist.
Take Tramadol guided by your doctor, usually every 4 to 6 hours as needed to relieve pain. You can take this medicine with or without food. If you have nausea, it can be helpful to take this medicine with food. Ask your doctor or pharmacist about other ways to reduce nausea (such as shaking the head as much as possible by lengthening from 1 to 2 hours).
Dosage is based on your medical condition and treatment response. To reduce your risk of side effects, your doctor may direct you to start this medication on low dose and gradually increase your dose. Follow your doctor’s instructions carefully. The recommended maximum dose is 400 mg per day. If you are over 75 years of age, the recommended maximum dose is 300 mg per day. Do not increase your dose, take medication more often, or take longer than scheduled time. When instructed, stop the medication properly.
Pain medicines work best if they are used as the first symptom of pain. If you wait until the pain gets worse, the medication can not work.
If you are suffering from persistent pain (such as arthritis), then your doctor may instruct you to take long-term opioid medicines. In that case, this drug can be used for sudden (success) pain. Other painkillers (such as acetaminophen, ibuprofen) can also be determined. Ask your doctor or pharmacist about using tramadol safely with other medicines.
This medication may be the reason for the withdrawal response, especially if it has been used regularly for a long time or in higher doses. If you suddenly stop using this medicine then in such cases, symptoms of withdrawal (such as discomfort, water coming in the nose, nasal bleeding, sweating, muscle pain) can occur. To prevent withdrawal responses, your doctor may gradually reduce your dose. Consult your doctor or pharmacist for more information, and immediately report any refund responses.
When Tramadol is used for a long time, it can not work too. Talk to your doctor if this medicine stops working well.
Although it helps many people, but Tramadol can sometimes cause addiction. This risk can be high if you have any substance use disorder (like excess / drug or addiction of alcohol). Take this medicine properly to reduce the risk of addiction. Ask your doctor or pharmacist for more information.
Tell your doctor if your pain remains or worsens.
Side Effects
See also the warning section.
Nausea, vomiting, constipation, dizziness, dizziness, drowsiness, or headache can occur. After using Tramadol for a while, some of these side effects may be reduced. If any of these effects persists or worsens, tell your doctor or pharmacist immediately.
To prevent constipation, eat dietary fiber, drink plenty of water, and exercise. Consult your pharmacist to help select a laxative (such as a stimulant type with stool softener). Read More
