wprime Posted November 8, 2023 Share Posted November 8, 2023 Tramadol is probably the least addictive of the opiods/opiates. If you take low-dose tramadol regularly, it will lose effectiveness. Stopping it and restarting will regain some effectiveness but not as much as when you first started it. When you stop it abruptly, you will feel irritable and restless, and may get some generalised pain or other nerve symptoms like itchiness for 2-3 days. For this reason, it is not ideal for long-term pain management. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pregabalin was originally FDA approved in 2004 as an anti-epileptic drug, also called an anticonvulsant. It works by slowing down impulses in the brain that cause seizures. Pregabalin also affects chemicals in the brain that send pain signals across the nervous system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
