  • Tramadol is a non-opiate analgesic, a Codeine analogue. Read quite a few Erowid addiction reports saying that when taking them on opiate withdrawals it pretty much saved them from withdrawals and weaned them off ok.

    tramadol is itself not actually an opiate but it does bind on the opiod (sp?) receptors of the brain giving an opiate high. so i wouldnt consider it a cure for opiate addiction, but it will take the edge off withdrawal, but is initself v.addictive and not very good for you so not really a good substitute.

    Tramadol is a synthetic analog of the phenanthrene alkaloid codeine and, as such, is an opioid and also a prodrug (codeine is metabolized to morphine, tramadol is converted to M-1 aka O-desmethyltramadol). Opioids are chemical compounds which act upon one or more of the human opiate receptors (the euphoria, addictive nature and respiratory depression are mainly caused by the Mu(μ) 1 and 2 receptor. The opioid agonistic effect of tramadol and its major metabolite(s) are almost exclusively mediated by the substance’s action at the μ-opioid receptor. This characteristic distinguishes tramadol from many other substances (including morphine) of the opioid drug class, which generally do not possess tramadol’s degree of subtype selectivity.

    Is Ultram an opiate? | Answerbag

    I know it gives people bad withdrawals and stuff and isn’t good for you but maybe in comparison to hard opiate withdrawals it’s minor?

    sounds pretty similar tbh, you can have siezures from coming off tramadol addiction. guess you prob could use it to come off smack like people use nictotine patches to come off nicotine. seems like there could be the risk of just switching addictions tho. suppose if you used it in the short term to take the edge off then stopped when the whidrawals from the smack stopped then it’d be alright.

      I have a box of TRAMADOL 50 mg and looked once if it could replace my methadone “addiction” for a day, in case
      something would happen that I stand without my prescripted methadone.

      For me, the answer was clearly NO.

      Normally I take just 25 mg in the morning and 25 mg in the evening methad., which are very light doses,
      but in the afternoon after having taken every few hours more and more of these “tablets” (don’t know the name u give to these things),
      I had to take my dose of methadone in rush , cuz I was begining to get the “lovely symptoms of turkey”.

      SO I JUST COUNT AND THEY ARE MISSING 19 TABLETS IN THE TRAMADOL 50 mg BOX !!!!

      I am not a Doctor to give any recomandation on that,
      but I would think that if people are able to stop there addiction with tramadol, it is certainly much better than beginning a fucking methadon program
      and still being on it since 1992.

      If people want a good advice to stop their heroin addiction. be sure that u gonna stop before beginning any other medicine, cuz u can be quickly aeddicted
      to an other opoiods. when u feel ready to stop make quickly a decrease of the substitutive medicine u choose to help stopping ur adddiction, but dont do 4 days methadone, 2 days getting welll high again with heroin , and continue and so on , cuz this is the worse plan to do.

      U should be ready to stop in maximum of a month with the help of methadone for example by decreasing every day the amount of methadon (without doing the error to touch even once heroin during that time), so at the end of the month, u are away from heroin and won^t have feel any big pain.
      It is also easier the first daysto decrease bigger quantities of methadon and at the end going slower witzh the little doses

      FOR THE FIRST TIME SOMEONE TRY TO STOP HEROIN, IF TRAMADOL IS ENOUGH FOR HIM TO CALM HIS PAIN, CHOOSE IT, CUZ METHADONE IS MUCH MORE DIDFFICULT TO GET OFF THAN HEROIN

      Tramadol, as well as pethidine, had only a 50/50 chance of causing any psychoactive effect in me. Tramadol I hit 4500mg one day and collapsed, my breathing almost stopped, but I had NO EFFECT AT ALL. I know pethidine is an opioid (synthetic) and was actually developed at the same place as methadone. Not sure if tramadol is synthetic but if it is, maybe that’s why I got no effect so often.

      Kratom is supposedly good for H withdrawal, but there is no quality control since it is unregulated and can occasionally produce some weird reactions in people. Its adherents claim its a fucking miracle cure for opiate addiction, replacement for ADD meds, replacement for anxiety meds, replacement for anti-depressants. Good thing about it is that it is super cheap in bulk on the internet but you can go through a lot of it if you’re prone to because it isn’t going to kill you no matter the dose.

      Kratom does indeed give an opiate like effect. Very similar effect indeed. Have used it many many times.

      You’re also right about it getting hammered if you have it. I expected a kilo of very high quality kratom to last 6-9 months but it’s more like 3-4.
