Common Side Effect: You are describing a common side effect from the analgesic medication tramadol (ultram). This medication works in a couple ways to relieve pain. Because tramadol has a weak opioid effect, it can cause itching and other opioid side effects that can prove intolerable. If the itching (pruritis) is bothersome, you should consider stopping the tramadol and contact the prescribing physician.
