Common Questions and Answers about Ultracet dosage information
ultracet
I have fibromyalgia, degenerative disk disease, and cervical disk pain from previous cervical surgeries. Up until 2 weeks ago, I was taking Effexor XR daily, and Zanaflex and Ultracet 37.5, as needed. 2 weeks ago my cervical disk started going haywire with pain. I upped my Ultracet to 3 a day as prescribed and started taking the Zanaflex to the maximum dosage too. This did not faze the pain.
whats ultracet? i know its a pain reliever with tylenol, but does it give you the energy and motivation of vike or percs? I ask because I had to change doctors, and while he wasnt too happy to write for the vicodins i have been on for years, he had no problem with ultracet and he gave me a script.....so im basically asking, do people get addicted to this drug? should i not even start it?
Hey Aaron... Ultracet is addictive. Many people have gotten hooked on it. Its Ultram/Ultracet/Tramadol I believe they are all related and whehter doctors say so or not, they are addictive and can be dangerous. :( sorry for the bad news. They are also derived from the opiate family. Be careful with them. Ive used them during in between times when I was using -- just to hold w/drawal at bay -- so that should tell you something right there..
thanks for the information....i will i didnt have to take a pill today so today is a good day...i tried to send you a p/m but there is something wrong with the site...i will try again later there is something i would like to ask you.
Still some pain so am taking 3 Ultracet tabs per 24 hours with pretty good pain relief except following 30 minutes on the treadmill and various muscle building exercises and stretches. To calm down those muscles following exercises and stretches I would like to take one 200mg Celebrex daily but one drug interaction cite suggests "Moderate" drug-drug issue involving CYP450 2D6, which means nothing to me.
There is a permanent thread on this site that can give you all the information you would want regarding tramadol/ultracet.
I have been on it and have not had to up the dosage to get the relief I need at this point. It sounds like the Ultracet is more addictive and you tend to have to up the doasage quicker.
I am having another procedure done on my neck next week and I plan to discuss a lot of your comments and suggestions with them. Thank you so much for sharing with me. I need to know that someone really understands that pain takes a toll on your life in all ways and areas.
Hey, I am on day 3 and things arn't as bad as I thought, (so far) but I am using ultracet which is a non narcotic that my roommate had left over from a doc's visit! I am also using immodium and it seems to be making it easier on my ***! No offence with the language, hopefully? Anyhow, hang in there, I am!
Zakk.....uhhhhhh! when does it stop?
My 77 year old mother has been using Hydrocodone APAP 10/325 or 10/500mg for many years to take the edge off of severe RA. Her dosage is 1/1 PO TID which she has been very compliant and adheres to faithfully. During her last lab visit her M.D. had ordered a UDS along with the other labs. Her anxiolytic medication XANAX came back pusitive yet her opiate panel came back clean.
I believe Ultram and Ultracet are the same. It is 37.5 tramadol and whatever of acetaminophen. I had the generic of Ultracet (have the bottle right in front of me) it is broke down as aceetaminophen and 37.5 tramadol. It is entitled tramadol (generic for Ultracet) but it has the acet/tramadol combination.
I was then prescribed straight tramadol which is 50mg tramadol with nothing else added. period.
If ultram is different than that is news to me.
In general, drugs such as Ultram (or tramadol) are not recommended during pregnancy or during breastfeeding because there is a lack of safety information. This does not mean that it will necessarily cause problems for the fetus or baby, but since the information is not known, it might. Animal studies have shown that the drug crosses to the developing fetus, but the danger to a developing human fetus is not known.
i just went to the doctor, and he gave me ultracet. does this work for pain and help withdrawl from hydros?
was your tramadol presription for ULTRAM or ULTRACET? If it is/was UltraCET, that contains acetaminophen (tylenol) as well as the tramadol, so therefore, if you took additional tylenol with it, you could have gotten too much of the tylenol ingredient, which could make you sick (and cause liver damage if continued).
OH MY GOD! I have been addicted to this horrible drug-from-hell for well over 6 years. It started out by my cousin giving me samples from her job at an orthopediac clinic. I had neck & lower back pains, because I need a breast reduction. That started out fine, but then I started to notice that I was getting sick whenever she didn't bring me any samples. I found out that the pills she was giving me were called "Ultracet.

My husband just had his Gallbladder removed and he was addict for 13 years he's been clean for 7 the dr prescribed him Ultracet and he's scared to take it for the pain because of his addictive past. The Dr knew he was a addict and told him they are not addictive but reading online it says it is should he get the script filled or just take OTC meds? If OTC what should he take?
