Is it safe to take tramadol while pregnant?

No, tramadol has been shown to cause harm to a fetus. Tramadol is also found in breast milk so you can't breast feed either.

avoid use with; children pregnancy, breast feeding. if still unsure see good old doc.

Yes you need to talk to your dr asap. They will give you a weaning schedule. You can't quit cold turkey as it might stress the baby . But it is a category c drug. I had to be on pain medicine for kidney problems during my entire pregnancy. I was put on vicodin. Tramadol wasn't even an option. Make sure you talk to your dr.congrats on the pregnancy! :)

HI,
I agree with puckiemull. I know that taking tramadol while pregnant an be dangerous, I work in the medical field and I take tramadol for osteoarthritis. I would highly advise you to speak to a doctor right away. Now I don't want you to be extremely concerned as all of the research only says that there is no research to support how tramadol affect the unborn fetus. I hope all goes well and I wish you and your baby the best of luck and great health.

I would suggest you speak to your doc about stopping the tramadol,you will have to taper off it as going cold turkey would not be a good idea and could lead to seizures seen as you are on them for so long,your doc/gp can advise you on a taper plan that will be safe for both you and baby!
Congrats on your pregnancy and i wish you and your baby all the best!
Take care!!
