I have been taking Tramadol occasionally over the past 4 years. It does feel like a light opiate at 100 mg ( like codeine or darvocet). Also have notice too that it's great if you are taking a hydro or oxy " holiday" knocks out alot of the nasty WD effects. I think though it has the potential ( just like any substance) to become habit forming. I read somewhere that its much slower acting than opiates, takes like an hour to kick in, and reaches peak plasma levels at 2.5 hrs. Not sure, but think hydro, etc, kicks in a good bit quicker and doesn't have the 1/2 life of tramadol. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
I have noticed that some people love tramadol and even prefer over hydro, while others complain its worthless. I find it relieves pain about equal dosage to codiene, not as good as hydro. I think it has to do with liver enzymes and how your body absorbs it,etc. Also read that they did a study and found that its more effective on women than men, possibly because of differant enzymes in the digestive system.
I'm impressed with the recent posts and learned alot from them. Take Care!
