Avatar f tn For sure. Cats are at least 10 times smaller than a SMALL adult human female. What is given to us is too much for such a small animal. For example: The amount of Zyrtec I was told to give to Akira is only 1/4 of the adult human dosage. This is much smaller than the children's dosage, which is 1/2 of the adult human dosage. I would never ever give medications to Akira without her first seeing her doctor. I do know that no one should ever give Tylenol to their pets.
Avatar m tn My dog gets Tramadol hydrochloride 50mg from the vet. Are these the same pills humans can take?
535089 tn?1400673519 Little advice tramadol in humans is very addictive. That's how my addiction started with pain meds so please do not say it's not addictive. Also live in my shoes as an addict then tell me addiction is better than pain. Yes for dogs it's great. My dachshund had been taking it for a yr now and has saved her. But please don't give uneducated advice on things you really don't know about.
544292 tn?1268882668 Hi Tramadol Warriors, Many people have come here for many years, giving support and getting support. Because I still believe that Tramadol is unique in it's ... terror and torture of humans, this thread continues. The people who can understand what you are going thru are the people who have kicked it and there's people here who come back to lend a hand. You also will never need an understanding ear as much. You can do it. You can quit. You do not need to be a slave to Tramadol.
Avatar n tn Tramadol works on our(humans) receptors just like narcotics do. For humans it is probably the worst drug to come off. In some countries Tramadol is now listed as a controlled substance. Seizures are a side effect. Just wanted to get that out here. I have no idea if it affects animals the same way, i hope not.
Avatar m tn There are no studies showing tramadol causing fibrosis in humans. There is nothing to indicate that tramadol interferes with liver function any more than putting together an arts and crafts project with cement glue and enamel paint. Your comments about marijuana, opiods, and alcohol also do not point out the extreme dosages and chronic use in those studies. Abuse, not casual use of these substances can cause documented harm.

Avatar f tn How does one withdraw from tramadol without being sedated. Used it for many years. Can take 20 a day.
Avatar f tn m sure there are others....It was orginally made for Humans to control pain from Cancer....It works great in a dog..... I also think Acupuncture would help tremendously!!!! To locate a Holistic Vet in your area, go to the "AHVMA" wegsight....There is a search by state option....He/she will also be able to help with the Cushings. I prefer one that is also liscensed in Chinese Herbs. The web page will list Drs. close to you and also list what they specialize in...
Avatar m tn Thank you for sharing your story. Yes, tramadol can be pure hell to withdraw from. I tapered; I could have never quit cold like you did. The one time I ran out of pills 1300 miles away due to a snowed-in flight made me wish that I were dead--and I've never had depression before. I am so happy for you and your successful detox and clean time! Thanks again for the post.
1690584 tn?1340297472 Both Tramadol and Fioricet are Pregnancy Category C, which means: "Animal reproduction studies have shown an adverse effect on the fetus and there are no adequate and well-controlled studies in humans, but potential benefits may warrant use of the drug in pregnant women despite potential risks." Also Fioricet has both a barbiturate and caffeine. Caffeine should be limited to 200 mg or less per day while pregnant and one Fioricet has 40mg.
Avatar f tn The doctor gave me Tramadol for my endometriosis pain. I have a full week of almost intolerable pain every monthl. Tramadol is one of the few drugs I can tolerate with regards to nausea (Vicodin et al seem to just make me puke immediately), and it does actually manage to relieve my pain fully or at least 80-90% (when I mix it with Aleve). The problem is this. I have to admit that I enjoy the Tramadol. It makes me feel good. Of course it does -- it makes everyone feel good.
Avatar m tn I've been having back pain recently which stems from something that I have had since I was a kid, although it seems to be getting worse as I get older. What will happen is that the pain will start in my back then move down my legs. Sometimes it hurts so bad that I can hardly walk. I've been to the doctors many times, but they can never pinpoint what is causing it. Anyway, the doctor recently prescribed Tramadol for the pain.
1388999 tn?1370042814 While pain in dogs can be treated with narcotics, it's not often that it's used for chronic pain situations outside an inpatient setting that can be closely monitored. I suspect part of the reason is diversion: too many people take the meds meant for their dogs. There are several NSAIDS to try that are safe for dogs. Deramaxx is a cox-II inhibitor like human Celebrex that worked the best for my dogs with osteoarthritis and one with hip dysplasia.
2117936 tn?1334693230 hello and welcome. did the doctor give you a taper plan? you cant stop tramadol cold turkey.it can cause seizures. some of the symptoms of withdrawal can be,anxiety,sweating insomnia, nausea, shakiness, diarrhea, brain zaps.
Avatar m tn ve been on it for much of your life so for me Tramadol helps with the little things while maintaining less abuse potential. Everyone is different and abstinence is not always the goal ahead of self care assisted by a drug similar to codeine v full agonist. Plus Tramadol assists to deal with the withdrawal and rehab elements using a far less load than the others for me.
Avatar m tn Have you tried to give up tramadol and had problems with the withdrawal or are you yet to try? How long have you been using tramadol for? I just tried giving it up for the first time yesterday. I took my last pill at 1 am on December 31st and had caved in 19 hours later.... I am thinking I need to taper but I just want to get this over and done with as soon as possible. We can get through this together!!!
Avatar f tn Hi.. I have been taking one 150mg of tramadol per day for back pain and I've noticed my legs and arms twitch is this normal or wAt could it be?
Avatar f tn I was successfully addicted to tramadol for many years !!!! As IBK said tell us more tramadol can be just as addicting as other opiates. doctors are big on saying its not addictive but many of us found out the very hard way that was wrong ....
Avatar m tn t think the Tram Warriors on MedHelp that we hear from are those that were put on a short term, 5 day, controlled step down script for Tramadol. The potential for addictiion to Trams after being addicted to another opiate is VERY REAL. And we need to KNOW all we can on our new road to recovery....be aware of pitfalls and misnomers out there. Your situation seems to be different than most I've read on here. The use of this 5 day plan is NOT what many others on here are even talking about.
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 f tn I am 25 weeks pregnant and I have been prescribed clonazepam 1mg twice daily a month ago for anxiety and seizure. I am very concerned from going to not taking any medication to starting them on March 25th. This past weekend my feet and teeth were in so much pain I took 3 Norco and 6 tremendous.
Avatar f tn (10-15 a day). I have a script for 15-50mg tramadol. Should I use the tramadol to help ease the lortab comedown? Will it even help? Or should I go cold turkey? I've read other posts about tramadol, and don't know which way to go. I do know I want my life back, and I can't afford the down time of the painful withdrawls I get. Experienced advice would be greatly helpful.
