Then I would call your pharmacist and as long as he says they are fine then dont worry .Did you not get them filled the same place ? I will tell you this at some point you are going to have to come off of it and its going to be very hard so make sure you use it sparingly and remember u dont want to be tied to any drug ...

Thank you so much for your help. I did get them both from the same pharmacy. I will give them a call and see what I should do. thanks again.

yeah they should have told you if there would be a problem but if you have doubts double check

According to my knowledge of the actions of both drugs it does not make sense to take both together.Stadol is partial agonist/antagonist drug that blocks the mu opiate receptors and stimulates the sigma opiate receptors.Tramadol stimulates the Mu receptors and possibly the sigma as well.Looks like Stadol will block the effects of tramadol,but I have been wrong before and maybe there is some new literature that supports the use of these drugs together.I just have not been able to find it.

all the more reason to call pharmacist and ask
