Suggest Treatment For Side Effects Of Tramadol
Question: I took two 50mg Tramadol as prescribed about three hours ago. About half an hour ago I started feeling extremely ill, nauseous, dizzy, drowsy, etc. This is all making me very anxious and a little scared. Is this a medical emergency or what do I do?
Brief Answer:
these are possible side effects of tramadol
Detailed Answer:
HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
It is understandable to be concerned but this would not be considered an emergency, this are side effects of tramadol
Tramadol is known to cause all of the symptoms describe, the higher the dose used, the more likely the effects would be experienced
Some persons combine the tramadol with dramamine to decrease the nausea but this may increase drowsiness.
The side effects would wear off as the medication wears off in a few hours.
I hope this helps,feel free to ask any other questions

is it also a tramadol side effect to be so drowsy that I could barely keep my eyes open for three hours? I feel much better now, about five hours after the dose, but still kind of shaky and sleepy.
