Dsmmcm,
The claim that Ultram can trigger seizures is most definitely NOT a myth. DSMMCM there is a message for you at the end of this.

I have intimate knowledge about Ultram causing seizures.

This is going to sound completely far-fetched and we are all pretty much strangers but the following it is most definitely true.

This person was taking 7-8 50mg Ultram EVERY 4-5 HOURS for about 4-5 years. The daily maximum dose is supposed to be 400mg or 8 tabs. This person was taking the daily max every few hours.

This person had 5 full blown grand mal seizures all within the last 12-18 months.
After each one, this person would cut down the dosage to around 4-5 50mg tabs every 4-5 hours.
Eventually creeping back up.

I often wonder if it's because the dose finally got big enough to trigger the seizures or has there been enough brain/brain cell damage to lower the seizure threshold.

A million tests were run and nothing (epilepsy, tumor, etc) was ever found.

You mentioned a warning.
I believe with Epilepsy, there is a warning or an "aura" just prior to the seizure that apparently give a few moments to pull over, sit down or whatever it takes to be a little safer.

With Ultram,however, there is absolutely no warning.
No lightheadedness, dizziness, "aura".
One minute you are awake and the next moment you aren't.

I suspect I lost all credibility with most of you at the 350-400mg dose every four to five hours.

If you've read my past posts and trust what I am writing is the truth and would like more information about my experience with this person and their adventures with Ultram feel free to PM me.

I can't repeat this line enough:

Ultram is very addicting and the risk of seizures from massive doses of Ultram is very, very real.

Based on my reading, especially here at Drugbuyers, Ultram affects everyone differently.

I should rephrase my earlier statement. Ultram is very addicting to those susceptible to dependence/addiction to other Opiates/Benzos.

Millions of people have no problem with this or any of the other controlled substances.
But for those that do have habit problems, Ultram can be a doozy.

Nice thought, huh.

Take care

DSMMCM, please don't be offended by my contradicting of your statement. I completely understand if you now reply that my post is a crock of you-know-what!

I didn't want this to read as an attack of you or anyone else. I value everyone's opinion. Of coure, you and everyone else are completely wrong if they don't agree with my opinion but I can't help it I'm brilliant. JUST KIDDING!

Take care
PJ
