Description is Tramadol?
Tramadol hydrochloride is a centrally acting opioid analgesic used in treating severe pain. The drug has a wide range of applications, including treatment for restless legs syndrome and fibromyalgia.
Tramadol possesses weak agonist actions at the μ-opioid receptor, releases serotonin, and inhibits the reuptake of norepinephrine.
Information about Tramadol:
Tramadol is used similarly to codeine, to treat moderate to moderately severe pain. Tramadol is somewhat pharmacologically similar to levorphanol (albeit with much lower μ-agonism) Tramadol could be effective for alleviating symptoms of depression, anxiety, and phobias because of its action on the body’s control systems, such as its "atypical" opioid activity. However, health professionals have not endorsed its use for these disorders, claiming it may be used as a unique treatment (only when other treatments failed), and must be used under the control of a psychiatrist.
