Tramadol is used to relieve moderate to moderately severe
pain. It also may be used to treat pain caused by surgery
and chronic conditions such as cancer or joint pain. Tramadol
works by decreasing the brain's perception and response to
pain. It also reduces the size or magnitude of the pain signal
passed from one nerve to another. This medication is sometimes
prescribed for other uses; ask your doctor or pharmacist for
more information.
Tramadol comes as a tablet to take by mouth.
It usually is taken every 4-6 hours as needed. It may be taken
with or without food. Follow the directions on your prescription
label carefully, and ask your doctor or pharmacist to explain
any part you do not understand. Take Tramadol exactly as directed.
Tramadol can be habit-forming. Do not take a larger dose take
it more often, or for a longer period than your doctor tells
you to.
Before taking Tramadol, tell your doctor
if you have kidney disease; liver disease; or a history of
alcohol or drug dependence. You may not be able to take Tramadol,
or you may require a dosage adjustment or special monitoring
during treatment if you have any of the conditions listed
above. Tramadol is in the FDA pregnancy category C. This means
that it is not known whether it will be harmful to an unborn
baby. Do not take this medication without first talking to
your doctor if you are pregnant. It is also not known whether
Tramadol passes into breast milk. Do not take Tramadol without
first talking to your doctor if you are breast-feeding a baby.
If you are over 75 years of age, you may be more likely to
experience side effects from Tramadol. The maximum daily dose
of Tramadol for people over 75 years of age is 300 mg. Tramadol
is not approved by the FDA for use by children younger than
16 years of age.
Take the missed dose as soon as you remember
it. However, if it is almost time for the next dose, skip
the missed dose and continue your regular dosing schedule.
Do not take a double dose to make up for a missed one.
Although side effects from Tramadol are
not common, they can occur. The most frequently reported events
were in the central nervous system (Migraine, Speech disorders)
and gastrointestinal system (Gastrointestinal bleeding, Hepatitis,
Stomatitis, Liver failure). Tell your doctor if any of these
symptoms are severe or do not go away: dizziness, headache,
drowsiness, blurred vision, upset stomach, vomiting, and diarrhea.
If you experience any of the following symptoms, call your
doctor immediately: fast heartbeat, redness, swelling, and
itching of the face, numbness or tingling of the hands and
feet, difficulty breathing, changes in urination, seizures.
Dispense in a tight container. Store at

Seek emergency medical attention. Symptoms
of a Tramadol overdose include difficulty breathing; shallow,
weak breathing; and seizures.
Do not drink alcohol while taking Tramadol.
Alcohol may cause a dangerous decrease in breathing and/ or
liver problems when used during treatment with Tramadol. Use
caution when driving, operating machinery, or performing other
hazardous activities. Tramadol may cause dizziness or drowsiness.
If you experience dizziness or drowsiness, avoid these activities.
Avoid sleeping pills, tranquilizers, sedatives, and antihistamines
except under the supervision of your doctor. These drugs may
increase drowsiness caused by Tramadol.
