Is tramadol an opiate? can it be used in conjunction, properly with norco (hydrocodone and acetaminophen)?

Yes..yes...but: Tramadol is an opiate and can be used with norco (hydrocodone and acetaminophen). Tramadol can be addicting but less so than Norco (hydrocodone and acetaminophen) (hydrocodone). In treating pain, i tend to prefer tramadol to Norco (hydrocodone and acetaminophen) actually. There are many non-opioid treatments of pain that are not addicting at all. Good luck.

Tramadol is not : An opiate. Its a synthetic drug that binds multiple receptors which includes mu. It can have synergistic sedative effect with opiods.
