Tramadol Guide


Tramadol AddictionWhat is Tramadol and it's Effects?
Tramadol is a prescription pain medication used to treat moderate to severely moderate pain. Although Tramadol is not classified as a controlled substance in most states, it does have the potential to be abused. It is important to distinguish between true Tramadol abuse and a physical dependence on the drug, which can occur with any long-term use, wether the use is legitimate or not.

Tramadol was originally marketed as a medication with weak narcotic effects and slight potential for abuse. Many healthcare providers came to view Tramadol as a relatively safe medication for people with previous issues regarding drug or alcohol abuse. Unfortunately research has since demonstrated that Tramadol works primarily through a morphine like activity resulting in numerous cases of abuse and dependence. Current prescribing information for Tramadol contains several different warnings about the potential for abuse and addiction.
