Question 1

how much time does it take to get addicted to tramadol?

Accepted Answer

Wrong term: No drug "causes" ADDICTION. Addiction requires the active participation of the person. What you really mean is physical dependency, which is NOT the same thing as addiction. Babies don't get "addicted" to things their mothers are taken, despite what sloppy reporters/editors say in newspapers or on TV/radio. If you take 50-100 mg of Tramadol twice a day for several weeks, you get mild dependence.

Question 2

how many tramadols can you take at once?

Accepted Answer

Talk to your doctor: 100mg is the max dose per single administration, however this dose is not a starting dose and you should never vary from the specific prescription given to you. Tramadol has contraindications with certain diseases (such as seizures) & medications (ssris) and should be discussed in detail with your prescribing physician. Talk to your personal doctor about proper usage before taking!
