A member asked:
I was on tramadol 400mg per day but have now been switched by my doctor to tapentadol 150mg per day. what is the tapentadol equivalent of tramadol 400?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
That's not the issue: The question of equivalency id going to miss the point and probably is not answerable in a meaningful way. Each will have a therapeutic range w/ a max safe dose. Here's info on them: http://www.neuropathie.nu/wetenschap/is-tapentadol-better-than-tramadol.html Same mfg, so not competition!
