I have 2 friends who are former addicts who have both had seizures from overdosing their tramadol. be very careful.
That's probably why...I've heard it being used as an anti depressant even though it's mainly a pain killer. My doctor prescribed Zoloft for my pain ... Zoloft is an anti depressant but can also kill some pain..
I guess there's a similarity between Anti Depressants & Pain killers
Tramadol can and do cause seizures and death. Don't think that's especially controversial. Pretty well known risks of tramadol use really.
Tramadol is an opioid and also an SNRI so has antidepressant properties too. Sertraline (Zoloft) is a straight SSRI. SSRI's are generally not considered to be recreational. Also, just cos something's a painkiller doesn't mean it will be euphoric - would you expect aspirin to be euphoric?
Tramadol DOES have euphoric effects, I take 4-500 mg a day and I love it. so unless your just a str8 junkie with a SUPER tolerance, then it WILL effect you, and if not, then maybe you should be at a methadone clinic or something
tramadol is stupidly easy for me to get, which is a real shame, because I will not touch the stuff.
the seizure risk is the big thing for me, i have taken 100mg and found my self suddenly jerking an arm or something, really worried me, when it happened i downed 10mg of Diazepam and that stopped it, but I will never touch it again.
I read online where someone had a seizure from 50mg daily dosage.
combined with opiates, increased risk of seizure,
combined with alcohol, increased risk of seizure.
to me, it is a nasty substance.
imho
If one person has it happen they have to document it.
me in the above thread said:... Every muscle in my body was in spasm and pure agony for many hours. My cramps had cramps. And those cramps had cramps. I remember jerking about kinda spasming and there was a lot of writhing and probably bellowing and wailing and screaming I suspect. And a hell of a lot of running around pissing all over the place and myself...
