About

Dizziness and Drowsiness: Tramadol can cause feelings of dizziness or drowsiness, affecting alertness and coordination. It's crucial to avoid activities requiring mental acuity, such as driving, until you understand how Tramadol affects you.

Constipation: Like many opioids, Tramadol can lead to constipation, which may necessitate the use of laxatives or dietary adjustments.

Respiratory Depression: In high doses or when combined with other central nervous system depressants, Tramadol can suppress breathing. Caution is especially warranted in individuals with respiratory conditions.
