ULTRAM® (tramadol hydrochloride tablets)
is a prescription medication indicated
for the management of moderate to moderately
severe pain. ULTRAM received U.S. Food
and Drug Administration (FDA) approval
in March 1995. Tramadol has been prescribed
in more than 55 million patients worldwide
and ULTRAM has been prescribed in more
than 21 million patients in the United
States.
ULTRAM is a centrally acting synthetic
analgesic, not a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory
drug (NSAID). ULTRAM has no anti-inflammatory
activity and no potential for prostaglandin-mediated
side effects.

GENERIC NAME:Tramadol and Acetaminophen
BRAND NAME: Ultracet
Ultracet is a combination of two drugs,
tramadol (Ultram) and acetaminophen (Tylenol),
that is used to relieve moderate, acute
pain such as pain following dental or
surgical procedures. Tramadol and acetaminophen
each relieve pain, but they do so by different
mechanisms. Tramadol achieves pain relief
in two ways. It binds to the µ-opioid
receptor on nerves (the same mechanism
that is responsible for the effectives
of narcotics, such as morphine), and it
also inhibits the reuptake of serotonin
and norepinephrine by nerves. This inhibition
may lead to reduced transmission of pain
signals through the spinal cord to the
brain. Acetaminophen achieves pain relief
in the spinal cord and brain by increasing
the threshold to pain, that is, by increasing
the strength of the painful stimulus that
is necessary in order to give rise to
the sensation of pain. It does this by
inhibiting an enzyme that makes prostaglandins.

GENERIC NAME: Tramadol
BRAND NAME: Ultram
Tramadol is an effective pain reliever
(analgesic). Its mode of action resembles
that of narcotics, but it has significantly
less potential for abuse and addiction
than the narcotics. Tramadol is as effective
as narcotics in relieving pain but does
not depress respiration, a side effect
of most narcotics. Tramadol is not a nonsteroidal
antiinflammatory drug (NSAID), and does
not have the increased risk of stomach
ulceration and internal bleeding that
can occur with the use of NSAIDs. |
