Not related: By the way, if you are allergic to crustacea (shrimp , crab , lobster), it does not necessarily mean that you would be allergic to mollusk (clams, oyster). If you have any more questions, consult an allergist. Tramadol is totally unrelated to shellfish.

No connection: There is no connection between tramadol and a shellfish. You can take tramadol only if prescribe by your physician for you. Tramadol is an analgesic medication with serious side effects if taken in a large doses for a long period of time.
