Abstract

TRAMADOL is an analgesic acting as both a weak opioid agonist and an inhibitor of monoamine neurotransmitter reuptake. It also provides effective postoperative analgesia. 1 Unlike other opioids, it is well tolerated and has no clinically relevant effects on cardiovascular parameters; therefore, it is widely administered and may prove particularly useful in patients with poor cardiopulmonary function, including the elderly, and in patients with nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drug contraindications.
