You should be ok soon after a months usage.Tramadol is a synthetic opiate type drug which is highly addictive and has the added "bonus" of an anti depressant which makes it doubly hard to come off.It's not a controlled substance as yet but should be.You will be ok soon and my advice also is to stay away from tramadol.

You should be ok in a few days. It could be some withdrawal. You were not taking them for very long. My advice, stay away from them after this. They are highly addictive. ~Bkitty

Tram is very addicting. But not sure if only on a month. You can get addicted but shouldn't be an issue getting off with that short a time. Your brain hasn't had enough time to add more receptors. Should be ok after a day or two

Yup trams r physically addictive&cause bad w/d.Drs. for some reason dnt think people will get addicted or have w/d but they r widely abused and simple to get cause they arent a narcotic.

...  Sorry to tell you this but you're detoxing... My Doctor said that Tramadol was the way to go because it’s not an opiate... But he didn't know what he was talking about. After 6 months of taking I find out I was playing the game again!  2 years ago I got off the painkillers and it was hell! I was honest with the doctor and told him I can't get started on painkillers because I go over the edge. Now I'm tapering off because I got hooked again thanks to this doctor
