Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
WHAT DRUGS ARE SIMILAR TO TRAMADOL? MY MOM TOOK ONE TODAY 50 MG AND THIS EASED THE HER HEAD ACHE AND THE SOME OF HTE PAIN SHE IS HAVING IN HER FACE - SHE SAID HER FACE FEELS LIKE IT IS GOING TO EXPLODE AND SHE HAS A SEVERE HEAD ACHE. THIS MEDICINE SEEM TO HELP HER SOME. SHE HAS BEEN IN PAIN SINCE MAY OF LAST YEAR AND IT HAS PROGRESSIVELY GOTTEN WORSE. I WISH WE COULD FIND SOMETHING THAT WOULD MAKE ALL THE PAIN GO AWAY IN HER FACE AND HEAD
See, I think she is using drugs unnecessarily without prescription by the way you are explaining us her problems. There is something called pain clinic which is really of help who has pain.
Those people study the person and try to find any diagnosis of what has happened and if she really requires painkillers then they will suggest medicine accordingly.
Painkillers like Diclofenac, Tramadol, Pethidine, Morphine, Pentazocine, etcetera are all same family painkillers opioids which have a very good relief for pain. But these medications have to be prescribed by any practitioner near your locality.
Kindly try to diagnose the problem than taking painkillers. If you go pain clinic you can even get nerve blocks done which is more useful than all these.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Archana
