The difference between Tramadol and Ultram ER?

Q: I’ve been taking Tramadol 50 mg for a while, and recently my doctor prescribed me 14 Ultram ER 300mg, and says to take only one a day. Im wondering what are the difference between these two? Are they the same thing but one has more mg, or are they completely different? And which would be more effective? So taking an Ultram ER 300mg would be like taking 6 tramadol 50mg throughout the day?

A: They are exactly the same drug but Ultram is slow release of 300mg across the day whereas 50mg of tramadol will only last you a few hours. If you have chronic pain, an extended release like Ultram is probably better, giving you a “base”of pain relief across the day, rather than letting it build up. By the way, Paracetamol and Tramadol(or Ultram) work well together and do not interfere with each other.Add- yes but with the 50mg, your pain level will go up and down (according to when you took the tablet) so if it’s long term pain, I would stick with one 300mg tablet a day.

was taking ultram / tramadol and it kept me up for hours, was very addicting tho its not supposed to be, why?

Q: the dr took me off hydrocodone cause he said i had been taking it took long but it was nothing compared to what the ultram did to me, i have add and straterra does the same thing, its like drinking 5 pots of coffee, wth is wrong with me? its like i get the opposite side-effect from everything i take. i have had surgeries but the problem is not really fixable and will need something for the pain from now on. any suggestions from anyone out there like me?

A: Who told you ultram was not addicting?????Long ago it was,nt considered a narcotic. Today I believe it is.I use to be addicted to it. I had to get on a methadone program to get off of it.When I would run out I would have terrible withdrawls, the nurses said it looked like I was detoxing off of heroine.The pills use to keep me up all night to where as with other people it would knock them out. Ultram is a wicked drug. They need to take it right off the market.. Be careful with them if you ever start taking them again, I’ll be praying for you.
