I've seen alot of posts here from people saying that coming off of ultrams were 10times worse than coming off hydros.
Not to mention, its a known fact that ultrams cause seizures in some patients, and when you try to stop c/t off of ultrams after being on them for a long time, you run a high risk of seizing.
So, I'd just leave the ultrams alone if I were you.

I tried ultram to get off the loratab and although it is supposed to be addictive as well, it didnt do **** for me.  I was tripling my doses just to help the pain and didnt work on me and I got friends I got when I was going to NA and they said the same thing.. Its worth a try its got to help or it wouldnt be used so much... Good luck to you, Huggs, G

There is no doubt that Ultram is an excellent painkiller, just be aware, it is just as addicting as any other opiates. I know personally as I am trying very hard to stop taking them.

yes Jenny I believe that it does cause the vicodin to not work as well. It must be from the opiates in the ultram. I was having to take twice as many vicodin to feel the effects.
