Ultram
Withdrawal
Ultram is the brand name
of the generic drug Tramadol (TRA-ma-doll). Ultram is an analgesic used to treat
or prevent pain. Ultram is not a non steroidal anti inflammatory drug, nor is
it a narcotic. Ultram binds to certain opiod pain receptors in the body. By
blocking the reuptake of the neuro chemicals norepinephrine and serotonin, it
modifies the pain message resulting in pain relief.
Ultram was introduced in
1995, no control was recommended based on review of its uncontrolled use in
40 other countries. However, once Ultram was released in the U.S., Ultram addiction
became readily apparent. Large doses of Ultram can interfere with the ability
to breathe, especially if Ultram is taken with alcohol. Individuals dependent
on Ultram may experience Ultram Withdrawal symptoms.
