[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 408609, member: 1514"] Tramadol is not an opioid. It is a synthetic opioid type medication that supposedly works on the same part of the brain to reduce pain. Supposedly it was invented to avert pain medication dependency. That didnt work because for those that tramadol works for, they do become habituated to tramadol. For me, tramadol, or Ultram which was the name brand which was only available when I was prescribed it, was a nightmare. It caused immediate projectile vomiting the moment it hit my stomach. No matter the dose, it came back up. Even if I took phenergan half an hour before hand, it still came back up immediately. I never did get to see if the stuff would do any good. I tried it again later when it came out in generic form and was able to get one pill down but was so nauseated that it was simply not worth it. It certainly didnt do a thing for my pain that could ever be worth that amount of nausea. For me, it gets 5 thumbs down. As far as migraines go, there are so many other more effective medications out there without using this. [/QUOTE]
