Even when Tramadol is used correctly and under the supervision of a doctor, you can experience adverse reactions such as nausea and dizziness. And if you have been taking Tramadol in combination with other drugs or taking too much, your risk of severe and sometimes fatal side effects increases.
Tramadol side effects may include
Severe symptoms of misuse can include seizures and central nervous system (CNS) depression, where your heart rate and breathing decrease, leading to loss of consciousness, coma, seizures, and an accidental overdose.
Some people use Tramadol alongside other drugs to self-medicate or increase their high, often called “polysubstance use.” The risk of Tramadol addiction is higher when it is taken with other substances such as
According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), emergency department visits involving Tramadol misuse increased approximately 250% from 2005 to 2011.
Among people aged 12 or older in 2020, 3.3% (or about 9.3 million people) reported misusing prescription pain relievers in the prior 12 months.
It’s essential to recognize the signs of Tramadol misuse as early as possible to prevent an addiction from developing.

Tramadol misuse can also lead to severe adverse reactions, such as seizures. Seizures are most likely if you take large dosages of Tramadol (usually 400 milligrams or more daily) for extended periods or if you take it with antidepressants.
In addition, you may experience serotonin syndrome if you take Tramadol with antidepressants. Symptoms of serotonin syndrome include
Tramadol stimulates opioid receptors in the brain and inhibits the reuptake of two neurotransmitters: serotonin and norepinephrine. Because of this, two forms of withdrawal, with two unique sets of side effects — traditional and atypical opioid withdrawal syndromes — may be experienced.
Traditional side effects of Tramadol detox include
Atypical syndrome symptoms include
Generally, Tramadol withdrawal symptoms will last for only 5-7 days if a proper tapering method is used. Any symptoms that last longer than a week are considered post-acute withdrawal symptoms. Although these symptoms are not life threatening on their own, they put you at a high risk of making wrong decisions and getting into dangerous situations. A medically monitored facility like Restored Path Detox is a safer option to get you on the road to healing.
At Restored Path Detox, we offer medically monitored tramadol withdrawal help, a high level of care, and around-the-clock monitoring.
