Tramadol

Is there anything I can take or do while I wean off tramadol?  My doctor has me taking 3 50mg pills for one week then 2 a day for a week and 1 a day for a week.  I've been taking tramadol for 2 years and scared of the withdrawls from it. I've tried doing it cold turkey and know the symptoms. Pleas help!!

You'll be fine! You have a really good tapering plan and a good doctor to work with. Don't listen to your fear. Keep posting on this site asking for help and support. Discuss your withdrawal symptoms here and you will get support.

Good work to want to stop! You are going to feel a lot better.
