Does Tramadol have any euphoric value to it?

I've read mixed reviews, and the reports of seizures weirds me out.. although I have no history of seizures so I'm not too worried. How much would you recommend I take? They are 50mg with no acetaminophen.

Should I just toss these out? Or are they worth a try? Let me know. :D

Hope this is in the correct section.

EDIT: Forgot to add, I have no tolerance to opiates.

Send me a response soon please :D I got some good green for tonight as well in case these have no effect.

From reading, it looks like I should start with somewhere around 100-150mg? I'd rather not have my first seizure ever tonight or something. Help me out here guys. %)
 
For most, it's useless with any kind of opiate tolerance. To some, it's amazing, since their body makes more of the active metabolite, O-Desmethyltramadol.

You want to stagger doses for tramadol, don't take it all at once; that way your body makes more o-des. Take 50mg, then 30 minutes later, another 50mg. 100mg is a good starting dose. For my first dose, 125mg, it had me nodding harder than 25mg hydrocodone, so don't do too much just because it doesn't work for some people. 100mg has me pretty high for about 10 hours, and I have a mild opiate tolerance (10mg hydrocodone doesn't do much).

It takes about 2 hours for your body to make enough O-Des to feel opioid effects, so be patient.

Okay, thanks a lot for the response. I really appreciate it. I'll do just what you said. I have no tolerance whatsoever, so I have high hopes that it works for me. lol.

Will keep you all updated on how it goes, whether I respond tonight or tomorrow.
 
No problem, I edited my post to add: "It takes about 2 hours for your body to make enough O-Des to feel opioid effects, so be patient."

Personally, I would do 50mg at 0:00, then 50mg at t+0:30minutes, then 25mg at t+0:50 minutes, then smoke one or two hits (not more) of your "good green" at t+1:30. If tramadol works for you, you should be nodding 2 hours in, especially with the weed and with your lack of tolerance.

Have fun! :D

I did this exactly. ^ I don't think I feel any effect from the Tramadol. Though I am still baked off this herb and feelin good regardless. :) Maybe it could still kick in? If it doesn't, is it even worth a shot trying Tramadol again? or would I be wasting my time?
 
Tramadol is very weird. I have been around the block with opiates, and I have always been able to get recreational value out of Tramadol. I have other friends who get NOTHING. 300-400mg of tram puts me in a straight nod 7-8 hrs after dosing if it's at night. It is more of a 'dirty' high, but I still get the itchies and nod off of it. Just my 2 cents.

FYI: The 400mg threshold is a general estimate of the population. It all depends on the person. People have taken 300mg and had seizures and there's others who exceed 1000mg (nuts) and never have had one. It all depends on the person, all it does is lower the seizure threshold, how much so is different for everybody. I have taken 400mg and gone to raves (fkin crazy lights/sound, stuff that would induce a seizure easily) without a problem and little tolerance.
 
Before having an opiate tolerance and much better highs from potent opioids, I no longer get any feeling except w/d relief and energy. Use to catch a weird, jitttery, but eventually very moderate and eventually became a sedating moderate more "opioidesque" high off little potency, but synergized with weed well back in the day. Used to give me a mood uplift and moderate euphoria at one time in my life. I now, no longer feel it unless i combine it with some buprenorphine (a much better IMO, partial agonist)
 
Tramadol has never had any "euphoria" to me except for the one time I was having a gal bladder attack and taking them gave me the euphoria from relief from that hell.

I take 2 of them 4x/day and don't get proper pain relief from them, but that probably has something to do with the fact I was taking vicodin before being prescribed them for pain and I was taking 6 vicodin/day in self-medication.

Some people, however, do get euphoria from them. I always become dysphoric when I try smoking weed on these bitches, granted I'm on a bunch of other meds so that could have something to do with it.
 
Okay, well I ended up feeling 'something' by the end of last night. Nothing too strong though, nor was I nodding off. I'd like to try again tonight with these. Should I do the same dosage over the same period of time again? Or what?

I also have a 5mg hydrocodone pill, should I take it along with the Tramadols tonight? Or would it have no extra help in effect? hah.
 
I think tramadol is a very competitive opiod (though it's not too strong). So try to look into that 'cause you might waste perfectly good hydrocodone.
 
Try 50 mg, and another 50 mg an hour later. Don't mix with hydrocodone, as above it is stated it will be a waste of the hydro.
 
Tramadol is very weird. Don't expect euphoria like traditional opiates. It reminds me of Benzo's, in that it's more subtle and in the background but still has you feeling good, but not euphoric.

Stagger doses. I use to take large doses at once, and this doesn't really work best. Be careful though, Tramadol would sometimes make me very, very sick for reasons I don't even know why. One time I took a very small dose and smoked a bowl of bud and almost blacked out. My friend said my lips actually turned blue. Yet, other times I took huge doses throughout the day and smoked blunts and felt fine.

It's a very, very strange drug.
 
^So true.

When I first found tram I would take 400-600mg to feel it. Soon, I found less is more with tram. I think the biggest issue is that people do not receive anything close to a rush. It creeps up on you, tram has had me at time's getting out of my chair and saying 'wow' being very surprised at how nice I feel. I would agree with you on the benzo part J.Wallace, I do however feel much better then I would on a benzo. I was surprised that from taking 600mg+ before I can now take 200mg and get a nice buzz. Taking 100mg+100mg+100mg over the span of 2-3 hrs will definitely go farther then taking 300mg on the spot.

I have come to the conclusion you cannot overly-expect a high from tramadol otherwise you will be disappointed. Respect it, realize less is more and you will definitely feel the slight opioid activity. More and more I am coming to dislike the feeling the next day though. I am starting to think about whether the SSRI activity is coming into play. How anti-depressants work for some but not others. If you dislike or receive little from tram, I am suspecting SSRI's would achieve the same result.
 
Try 50 mg, and another 50 mg an hour later. Don't mix with hydrocodone, as above it is stated it will be a waste of the hydro.
Okay, won't use the hydro. But, 100mg of tramadol? I took 125mg following exactly how ErgicMergic said to, and I felt a mild buzz after a few hours. Mild but definitely felt it. How much is safe to take? I'm reading stuff saying 200mg+ is where it gets more risky for seizures and such. Just want more input before I give this another shot.
 
I find tramadol plenty euphoric and has always been one of my favorite drugs to enjoy. It doesn't come without it's fair share of risks, of course. Seizures are no joke, and do happen. They suck, by the way.

The 'line' for seizure risk is usually considered to be 400mg or so, but it can vary from person to person. I've heard of people seizing on much less, and some people not seizing at all on ungodly amounts.

I knew I had taken too high a dose and was pushing my luck when my body would suddenly violently jerk and I would also forget what I was talking about (if I was speaking.)

I cut down on this happening (and a lot of the other side-effects when I was abusing tramadol) by 'ramping' the dosage up slowly in intervals instead of taking the pills all at once. Highly recommended.

tramadol is eh, i had a seizure on it but still continue to take it often in low doses (50-150). why you ask? they feel amazing with oxycodone or suboxone + benzos and weed. if i don't have any tramadol on hand, i take some DXM instead. tramadol is a complex drugs with many mechanisms of action. i find each experience to be different from the previous, and so on....

i do recommend taking a benzo or nonbenzo with anticonvulsant properties (klonopin, valium, lyrica, ect..) because seizures do happen.
 
OP, if you're trying again today, and 125mg didn't do much for you after a couple of hours, try this:

50mg at 0:00
+50mg at t+0:20
+50mg at t+0:40
+50mg at t+1:00

The starting dose is 100-150mg since some people are extremely sensitive to tramadol, people with CYP2D6 polymorphism, which I think I have. 125mg makes my pupils in to little pin points the whole damn day. It seems like your body might convert less of it in to O-Des, so try 200mg this time. Just don't smoke too much weed and overpower the tram, and don't expect a rush, as said above. It's a creeping, long-lasting opioid high.

Btw, if you've never done opiates, you might not get high on them the first time, since you don't know what to look for in the high.
 
^ Alright, I'll give that a shot later in the evening!

Oh, and I have tried several different opiates in the past (hydrocodone, oxycodone, codeine, kratom).. It's just been awhile.
