ultram Vs. Vicodin

[mikehoncho]

I know ultram isnt as strong, but i was informed that ultram is a narcotic?
does anyone know how many tramadol 50mg do i need to take to get the same affect as a vic 7.5?? Or is it pointless.
Thanks

well the Ultram isn't "pointless" its just a 'different' kind of opioid... But i would say about 100mgs of Tramadol = 7.5mgs Hydrocodone...i dunno tho man its like a weird drug tho, some people get REALLY strong/good effects and some say they get "nothing."

Anyways I like to take about 250-300mgs at one time for a nice "tramadol high" and the tramadols work good for me when im on the Suboxone cuz they are like the only kind of narcotic that effects aren't really blocked by buprenorphine, i dunno if its some other kinda effect its having on my brain or what but Suboxone + Tramadol = nice buzz

Just a warning from my personal experience: I went into petit mal seizures from taking 4 50 mg tablets over the course of 8 hours.

ur serious? u went into a seizure after taking 200mgs of tramadol? were u on any other medications? like lexapro or some other kinda anti-depressant?? if so thats the reason!! DONT MIX TRAMADOL WITH SSRI's!!

Yep, serious as a heart attack. And I've taken almost every pain killer ever made. I just started twitching & my muscles went ridgit. Not gonna take that shit again.

seriously, s&e...petit mal after 200mg tramadol?
Normal dosage when tramadol is prescribed for moderate to severe pain is anywhere from 50-300mg ever 4-6hrs... you were well within the "safe" range.. sure you werent on SSRI's?

If not, then wow....crazy story.

I've taken anywhere between 100 and 400mg of tramadol and i'm one of the people who gets "nothing". I just get a persistent, annoying headache after about an hour...

Meh...tramadol's weird.
