Hi all
Been prescribed tramadol 200mg for bad gallstone-like stomach pains (but many ultrasounds/scans and they never find actual gallstones so it’s just recurring random weeks of pain)
Last time I was RX 200mg trams 4ish years ago they were green/yellow capsules, and if I was feeling recreational occasionally I could open the capsules and just mix the powder with a small bit of juice and drink it, (usually just one cap then sometimes one more 45min later, never went over 400mg) and it would give me a nice nod for the evening and a good sleep.
These new pressed pills however are round and have a top layer of green and bottom layer of white I take one 200mg and an hour later I just can’t keep my eyes open, my body feels soo heavy and I basically have to lie down and will fall properly asleep for a couple of hours, and just feel totally fatigued for hours after. Even if I take half a pill it’s heavy eyes etc :S
This is pretty good for when I’m using them for the pain as when I’m fast asleep it is relief from that doubled-over, warm beanbag 8/10 type agony, but if it’s lower 6/10 pain (still not nice) I’d rather feel nice and floaty but still be conscious to watch tv or other distractions.
I’m wondering if it’s one layer tramadol and the other layer is something else causing this extreme tiredness? Maybe to discourage abuse?
If it is can I try to separate the layers to just have the tramadol?
(It’s def not just me taking ‘too much’ as I wondered if it was because I had 0 tolerance but it’s def something different because I just went to Bali last week and bought some of the capsules which gave me the old slightly floaty blissful nod which is why i thought I’d post to the Bluelight gurus and maybe get some insight into this)
Thankyou anyone reading this!
