Ultram ER Drug Center
Medical Editor: Melissa Conrad Stöppler, MD
Ultram ER (tramadol extended-release) is a narcotic-like pain reliever that is used to treat moderate to severe pain. Tramadol extended-release is used to treat moderate to severe chronic pain when treatment is needed around the clock. Ultram ER is taken orally in tablet form. Possible side effects can include nausea, vomiting, dizziness, drowsiness, flushing, blurred vision, constipation, and sleep problems.
There are no adequate and well-controlled studies of Ultram ER in pregnant women. This medication should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus. Neonatal seizures, neonatal withdrawal syndrome, fetal death and stillbirth have been reported with tramadol immediate-release products. Tramadol extended-release is not recommended for obstetrical preoperative medication or for post-delivery analgesia in nursing mothers because its safety in infants and newborns has not been studied.
Our Ultram ER Drug Center provides a comprehensive view of available drug information as well as related drugs, user reviews, supplements, and diseases, and condition.
