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.
I am 75 and I had back surgery 6 months ago (E-LIF). Was on NARCO and got off of that 2 months ago and went on tramedal for about 6 weeks and have been trying to get off of that and have been taking ibuprofen 600mgs every 10-12 hours, I noticed I have been having difficulty sleeping which I think might be because of the ibuprofen. Should I go back to the tramedal ?
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, no analgesics are good for health once you are away from the Tramadol then do not start it again, if you have difficulty in sleeping then it may not be due to Ibuprofen but it could be due to some psychological disturbances you can try Tab Alprazolam .25 mg at bed time, hope this information helps.
