Tramadol is renowned for having very unpleasant side effects in some people, I have always avoided it it. However, some people tolerate it better than Codeine.
I canāt take Tramadol ⦠I was prescribed it once ⦠Iāve never felt so awful ⦠Iāll never ever ever take it again.Ā
Son had some amazing ādreamsā while he was heavily sedated in ICU recently ⦠incredibly real ⦠it took him some time to come to terms with the fact that none of those experiences had happened.Ā

It didn't occur to me but my husband is more cynical. I got a letter inviting me for an appointment two weeks hence. Two weeks of worry. I kept the appointment and was told that there was nothing to worry about. I saw someone for less than five minutes. She gave me the good news. I asked her why they couldn't have phoned or sent me a letter.She agreed. My husband reckons that it might be something to do with statistics.
Strange, morphine and codeine don't seem to have the slightest affect on me, including reducing pain unfortunately and I haven't had any hallucinations or nightmares thankfully.
However I agree with Dove about Tramadol, made me horribly, violently sick within an hour of leaving hospital after I did my back in so insisted on having it written across all my medical notes 'NO TRAMADOL' and I double checked while at A & E last week every time they wanted to give me pills. Goodness knows what is in it.
Tramadol is a synthetic opioid, and has similar side effects to codeine, dihydrocodeine, and morphineĀ and diamorphine. All will cause dizzinessĀ or nausea in those susceptible, and most people will need laxatives while taking them as they slow gut motility.
Aaaah @fidgetbones. If you want to know something, ask someone who knows. š Of course I may be a little bit biased. I can take almost nothing. If it has any type of stimulant in it I'm afraid it's a no! I can't even take adrenalin in my dental anaesthesia! Downers I have no idea. So far I've managed to avoid them.Ā
Tramadol also acts on non opiate receptors in the brain and is a partial agonist at opiate receptors ( sorry for the jargon ) which helps to explain that it can act in a non opiate way, and in some people actually has anti opiate effects.
How can you lie there and think of England When you don't even know who's in the team
Iāve takenĀ dihydrocodeine for 23 years, Ā no after effects, Ā I eat loads of fruit and veg so everything works well, Ā I can leave them off when Iām not so bad and just take ibuprofen, Ā no effects or withdrawal symptoms.Ā
