Tramadol question

[newtopills]

Took 150 mg about 8 hr ago. Felt a nice little buzz. Ended up having a few beers a few hours later. No negative effects. Question is, would another 150 be safe right now?
I know 300mg a day is max. I have heard things about seizures, but I have no history or family history of them that I am aware of.

Thanks in advance for any info you guys can provide

Sorry dude, but there's no way anyone can answer your question. The way different people respond differently to substances makes it hard enough, but tramadol in particular seems to be unpredictable.

Just recently in another thread a mod posted info from a study which suggested there was no definite link between the amount of tramadol someone takes, and their chance of having a seizure. In that thread, there were forum users who had taken up to 2 grams of the stuff in a day without seizure or adverse effects. Then, there were cases were people had had seizures in doses within (or even under, I think) the therapeutic range.

So, I think in response to your question, most people would say that sounds pretty safe. 300mg spread out over hours isn't very high a dose...

BUT the truth is that no one can say if it's really safe for YOU or not.

I decided not to last night. Just had a few more beers and hit the sack. Better safe then sorry.

^ Very happy to hear you put your well being first.

indeed.

though, to answer your question yeah youd likely had been totally fine. alcohol does lower the seizure threshold but you had a minimal amount.

you would've been fine...400mg is the daily maximum dosage and i sometimes take up to 3500mg a day and even more but i use benzos (mostly clonazepam) to avoid seizures and seeing as alcohol acts in a very similar way to benzos and taking into consideration an 8 hour difference between dosing I'd say you woulda been fine
