Anyone know of any ways to combat the NRI side effects of tapentadol?
Google says you can take up to 600-700mg of tapentadol a day. But if I dare go over 150 on the first day & over 300mg the subsequent days, I get brain zaps (similar to taking high amounts of buproprion) where it feels like my consciousness kind of "glitches" out for a split second. It also gives me mild auditory & visual hallucinations, along with some anxiety & insomnia.
So I don't see how it's possible for some one to take 700mg in a day without some serious or even deadly side effects.
But it's also not very long acting, so it becomes difficult to redose in one day without eventually ending up at 300+mg anyway.
