What is Tramadol? Tramadol (Brand Names: Ultram, Ultram ER) is a narcotic-like effective pain reliever (analgesic). Its mode of action resembles that of narcotics, but it has significantly less potential for abuse and addiction than the narcotics. Tramadol is as effective as narcotics in relieving pain but does not depress respiration, a side effect of most narcotics. Tramadol is not a nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drug (NSAID), and does not have the increased risk of stomach ulceration and internal bleeding that can occur with the use of NSAIDs. It may be used to treat pain caused by surgery and chronic conditions such as cancer or joint pain. It works by decreasing the body's sense of pain. Tramadol extend
ed-release is used to treat moderate to severe chronic pain when treatment is needed around the clock. The long-acting tablets are used for chronic ongoing pain. The effects of Tramadol are similar to those of narcotic analgesics. Although Tramadol is not classified as a narcotic, it may become habit-forming, causing mental or physical dependence.
