I've been taking suboxone for 2 months and was prescribed Tramadol ER for pain. Will the suboxone cause problems for me or cut down the effectivess of the medication if I take the Tramadol ER?
Does suboxone interact with Tramadol (or Ultram)?

The tramadol will be completely blocked by the suboxone. You will have to stop your subs for a few days, you can take the tramadol during that period, but it will be several days for the subs to clear and the tramadol to work, taking more tramadol will not make it work quicker. you will then have to go back into wd in order to restart your subs when you are ready too.

Caffiene123, be careful with the Ultram my friend!! It has some very nasty withdrawals if taken too long or too much!! Sometimes worse than classified opiates. I'm just saying!! Doctors are too quick to prescribe this medication and usually don't inform the patient of the side effects that you could have, like seizures. Hope all goes well for you. NIK
