A member asked:
I have ra and for 2 months i've been taking 1 tramadol 50mg before sleep for severe pain. read that tramadol increase/decrease estrogen, is this true?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Tramadol: Tramadol is a rather unique analgesic drug that is indicated for moderate to moderately severe pain. Although it binds to mu receptors, tramadol is not technically classified as an opioid analgesic. Instead, it is classified as a centrally acting synthetic analgesic compound and therefore is not a scheduled narcotic drug. Tramadol decreased levels of sex hormones.
