Opioids Decreased tolerance to Tramadol

[solace]

I've used Tramadol regularly for a while (years), maybe once twice a week. The first times 200mg gave me a nice effect, but with time I've had to decrease the dosage, and now I use just 15-20mg (!) to get a day long buzz.

I've never heard of opiate tolerance getting lower with time before. Anyone else experienced something similar or have any sort of reasonable explanation? (I'm not complaining mind you, it's really cheap for me :D, but I'm a bit curious.)

Do you take vitamins/supplements like piracetam?
How much do you weigh?
Less is more I tend do enjoy low doses too.

Thats crazy, Ive never heard of that before.. usually its never enough, you keep raising the dosage of opioids slightly until you realize you've Fucked yourself.. then you come down, rinse and repeat.

I wonder how tramadol would effect someone on low dose methadone

No vitamins, unless you count some benzo about twice a month I weigh 85kg, about the same weight as when I first tried Tram.

Same here. I want to be able to think when I'm on it, otherwise it feels like a waste of a good feeling. I've got a bit of an obsession about being productive when I'm feeling well.

Yeah, I've heard just the same, which is why I'm so baffled. A few of my friends have the experienced the same change as I have, though to a much lesser extent.

Never tried any other opiate except heroin, and didn't like it that much.
