Is Ultracet The Right Medicament For Back Pain?

I'm wondering how well Ultracet will work for my back pain? In the past my doctor has prescribed Vicodin which helps!!! I do not abuse it at all and only request it when my back is in constant pain... He wanted me to try Ultracet instead. Is it just basically a high dose of Tylonal?

Ultracet has tramadol which is better pain killer with very little abuse potential. It is very safe too. Although it does not have direct effect on back pain. Back pain 's permanent treatment is physiotherapy. So start doing physiotherapy. Till your muscles become string take ultracet.
