Does Venlafaxine Interact With Tramadol?

Hello, I have been on Venlafaxine for about 15yrs. 225 dly. Lately have felt very depressed again. Should I ask for an increase? I am also taking Tramadol for a back injury and know there is a drug interaction. Although I havent had any of the symptoms can this be a cause for my depression again? thanks.

Hello,

Venlafaxine does not interact with tramadol or affect the efficacy of one another. However, you will feel extreme sleepiness while combining these two.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
