Tramadol
Tramadol is marketed under a number of brand names including ZydolŪ in the UK and UltramŪ in the US. It is an Opiate based pain-relieving medication that can be taken in tablet form or as an intravenous injection.
Unlike other Opioids and Opiates, Tramadol is not considered to be a controlled substance in most countries. In fact, in some countries it is available over-the-counter without prescription. As it is an opiate (a narcotic) it should be taken only under a doctor's guidance. It is important to consider any other medications, even herbal remedies, before starting a course of Tramadol
Tramadol can become habit-forming and addictive. Dosage should be increased gradually until the pain is alleviated. Equally important when coming off the medication, it should be reduced gradually. A sudden stop in the medication can lead to serious withdrawal symptoms.
Tramadol is approximately 10% of the strength of morphine.
