541465 tn?1219427886 avisg is correct, tramadol is a sythetic opiate. While some doctors will deny it, tramadol is just a addictive and hydrocodone or any other opiate, the withdrawals from it are JUST AS BAD as withdrawals from methadone. I know this from personal experience. It may not be technially classified as an opiate, but it works the same way... tramadol blocks the same receptors in your brain as morphine does.

Avatar n tn So after a few days, any withdrawal you feel is going to be a tramadol withdrawal and not a hydrocodone withdrawal. And yes, it will be worse, there are many more horror stories about tram than hydrocodone. I had a doctor try to take me off of hydrocodone by giving me tramadol a few years ago when I was stopping meds after a surgery, and the withdrawals were terrible.
Avatar m tn yes i am on day three of detoxing from hydrocodone and am currently taking tramadol bout 150 mg a day and it seems to be helping im not really as sick and am pretty mobile i have also used prayer but was wondering if im going to be in the same boat when the tramadol runs out
Avatar m tn So, if Im taking anywhere from 40-80 mg of hydrocodone and roughly 1500-4000 mg of acetaminophen a day and I begin the isoniazid treatment am I risking serious health problems? Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated!
968560 tn?1307451498 Hi mpace6983, all I can say is I had the same problem with Tramadol and I also got insomnia from Tramadol and hydrocodone. So, I think you could try Valium but that is stronger I think. Maybe you have a cross reaction with another drug too? I know you will get a better answer on this site. Good luck and hope your pain gets better.
Avatar m tn If you are having a reaction to the Tramadol, I would call your doctor and stop taking it immediately! I have heard from many people on this site that Tramadol withdrawals are extremely difficult and I've almost wondered from their explanations of it if it's worse than the Hydroodone withdrawals. I just went throug the withdrawals from Hydrocodone (Lortab) and I'm on Day 16 and so it wasn't fun and I can't imagine something worse than that. Please be careful either way!
Avatar m tn Do not substitute Tramadol for hydros. Tramadol is extremely addictive and some here have said they are more difficult to withdrawal from than some other drugs. You can find many threads about the Tram withdrawals. I would just stay the course the way you are now. It will be difficult for awhile, but SO WORTH IT!!! Good luck and you are in my prayers!!!!
Avatar m tn Hey guys, Im new here and wanted some advice. Ive been taking Tramadol and Hydrocodone together for about three months off and on, perscribed of course, then I started reading how bad withdrawals can be from the Tramadol, so I quit taking it cold turkey with little side effects. Now I'm getting ready to quit this Hydrocodone, just a little scared from withdrawal and what to expect. will it be bad after just three months. averaged about 40 mgs. daily.
Avatar f tn You are correct about there the MAJOR drug interaction between tramadol and sertraline (Zoloft). Please note that there are several moderate drug interactions with your medications, for example, sertraline (Zoloft), pregabalin (Lyrica), clonidine, and methocarbamol (Robaxin) all can increase side effects such dizziness, drowsiness, and impaired thinking and judgment when taken together. It would be a good idea to review your medication regimen with your provider and pharmacist.
Avatar m tn I also suffer from migraines, arthritis, back pain, and chronic pain and have tried everything affordable to be in better health. In my teens and 20's I saw a rheumatologist and neurologist and was in excellent health for the next decade. From 1992 until the present time, I have been in poor health.
Avatar m tn I am disabled from my injuries and I have been on hydrocodone and it never took the pain away and I have take darvacet, percacet and to my surprise Tramadol works for me and my quality of life is so much better and I am 48 yrs old!!!
Avatar f tn Towards the end of my hydrocodone addiction though I was taking both Tramadol and Hydrocodone. I would take Trams for 2 weeks then switch to Hydros for 2 weeks. I did that for about 1 year before I got on the Methadone. And switching from hydros to trams went smooth, no withdrawals. But switching from trams to hydros was a little rough. I would feel some mild Tramadol withdrawals. That's what led me to the fact that Tramadol is a worse drug to be addicted to with worse withdrawals.
975183 tn?1251813472 ve only been taking the tramadol for a week. I started weaning myself off the hydrocodone with tramadol- I took my last hydrocodone yesterday at about 11:00am. So when I stop the tramadol, I will have only been taking them for 2 weeks.
Avatar n tn Is Tramadol an Opiate and is it stronger then hydrocodone? Anyone with advice concerning this drug HELP.
Avatar m tn Therefore, I am hoping this might open the door for some relief for some of those that suffer from chronic non-allergic rhinitis. Also, I recognize hydrocodone and Tramadol are opiates and must have a prescription. Opiates, especially hydrocodone, can have significant abuse potential but I perceive Tramadol is much friendlier in this regard and, at least for me, provides consistent and significant relief from a problem that is sometimes too distracting to allow normal daily activities.
Avatar f tn I was thinking about trying st. John's wort for depression. I take tramadol for a knee alignment issue. I currently take 100mg-200mg about 3 times a week. I know there is an interaction with st. John's wort due to the seratonin increase they both cause. Am I able to take the st. John's wort on days I don't need the tramadol? If not, how long should I wait to take the St. John's wort after taking the tramadol and when would I be able to take the st.
Avatar m tn I also ran an interaction checker on all three, Tramadol, Hydroxyzine and Synthroid, Synthroid produce no interaction with the other two, al though I di get a "Moderate" Interaction on Tramadol and Hydroxyzine as below: MONITOR: Central nervous system- and/or respiratory-depressant effects may be additively or synergistically increased in patients taking multiple drugs that cause these effects, especially in elderly or debilitated patients.
Avatar f tn I've been taking hydrocodone/Lortab and tramadol for about 5-6 years, all doctor-prescribed for chronic pain. I've never taken more than prescribed over the life of each refill, although I sometimes take extra on worse days and less on others to make up for it. After doing some research about the w/d symptoms, I wonder how much of my chronic pain is due to fibromyalgia and psoriatic arthritis, and how much is due to w/d symptoms?
699217 tn?1323438700 I wanted to know what the difference is between hydrocodone and like-oxycontin or oxycodone, Percocet, tramadol, is this all just types of hydrocodone? All I ever took was hydrocodone....
Avatar f tn I just would like to know that if I keep taking this tramadol will it make me feel the same way? I am a SAHM with 3 kids 6,5 and 4 months so I am alone with them alot and it would be scary if something like a seizure were to happen. Any suggestions will be appreciated.
318582 tn?1248118551 I tried Tramadol, it did nothing for me

403399 tn?1201833095 Both of those treatment drugs are way stronger than both Tramadol and Hydrocodone by so many degrees. That would only further the addiction and switch to something way way stronger.
Business man2 Hydrocodone only comes with either acetaminophen or ibuprofen. Tramadol is another medication that I use with my patients that is of equal effectiveness but does come without the other medications. However, some patients will experience nausea with tramadol. Good luck!
Avatar f tn Unless you want to make your withdrawals worse and prolonged. I use to have an addiction to hydrocodone. Once took 40 Norco in 14 hours. And I can tell you Tramadol is Far more dangerous to get involved with! The withdrawals are worse than Heroin, many many people have said. I have had withdrawals from Methadone, and I can tell you Tramadol is just as bad. Tramadol is bad news, not to start is the best idea!
