A member asked:

I was prescribed tramodal today from my doctor. i was asked to fill out a narcotic awareness form. i thought it was not a narcotic. am i wrong?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Tramadol is not: a narcotic by pharmacology. However it has addictive qualities similar to narcotics which can be exploited by those who are prone to addiction. That is the reason why you need to be careful with taking it especially if you have a long term or chronic condition requiring pain control. Thanks for trusting in HealthTap.
