What should I avoid while
taking Tramadol?
|
|
|
• |
Do not drink alcohol while
taking tramadol. Alcohol may
cause a dangerous decrease in
breathing and/or liver problems
when used during treatment with
tramadol. |
|
|
• |
Use caution when driving,
operating machinery, or
performing other hazardous
activities. Tramadol may cause
dizziness or drowsiness. If you
experience dizziness or
drowsiness, avoid these
activities. |
|
|
• |
Avoid sleeping pills,
tranquilizers, sedatives, and
antihistamines except under the
supervision of your doctor.
These drugs may increase
drowsiness caused by tramadol. |
|
|
• |
Tramadol may increase the
effects of other drugs that
cause drowsiness, including
antidepressants, alcohol, other
antihistamines, pain relievers,
anxiety medicines, seizure
medicines, and muscle relaxants.
Dangerous sedation, dizziness,
drowsiness, or decreased
breathing may occur if tramadol
is taken with any of these
medications. Tell your doctor
about all medicines that you are
taking, and do not take any
other prescription or
over-the-counter medicines,
including herbal products,
without first talking to your
doctor during treatment with
tramadol. |
