Tramadol and Body Pain

-


Body pain and daily work do not really go hand in hand. That said, what is the first thing you do when there’s a sudden pain in your body due to some sort of injury or improper posture or illness? You take meds to get relief from the unruly sensation, right? Well, there are a lot of pain relief drugs available in the market. One of the most effective drugs is Tramadol which is commonly available in dosages of 50mg and 100mg.

Tramadol, which is a prescribed medicine, comes under the brand name of Ultram. It is used to treat moderate to moderately severe pain. And unlike Soma pill, Tramadol can be effective for both acute as well as chronic pain. Acute pain is a type of pain which occurs suddenly when we get involved in some aggressive physical activity. This type of pain lasts for a short period of time. On the other hand, chronic pain is that which can last for a long period of time.

Tramadol is pain relief drug that works by binding the receptors in the brain that send pain sensations through the body. As a result, the med changes the way the body perceives the pain.


How fast does it work?

Tramadol is a very effective pain killer that starts kicking in within an hour and a half after its intake. It has a half life of 6 hours to be exact. Thus, your doctor may ask you to take the med every 4 to 6 hours, because the effects of the med starts fading away after that.
