Ultracet (acetaminophen/tramadol): I've only been taking this medication for 2 days (back pain), it takes the edge off which allows me to function better. However, I'm nauseous, dizzy and lightheaded and I can't keep my eyes open and I'm not even tired. I'm thinking about not taking it because I can't drive like this with 2 young children in my car.

Ultracet (acetaminophen/tramadol): I've been taking Ultracet for about 4 months, usually 2-4 tablets daily. Not sure why my doctor prescribed it for long term use when product info says it is for short term usage. The pills generally help with pain, but they also give me a feeling of "well being", like a narcotic pain killer. Recently, I had a delay in getting my prescription filled and had to stop the pills abruptly. On the second day, I experienced withdrawal symptoms such as sweating, flu-like chills, clammy hands, restless leg syndrome and sleeplessness.

Ultracet (acetaminophen/tramadol): Is very good for pain. I have ankle strains, elbow bursitis, shoulder bursitis, arthritis and joint pain and strained tendons in both knees. Constipation is the only side effect.

Ultracet (acetaminophen/tramadol): I have a badly herniated L5-S1 disc. While Vicodin is a very effective and safe medicine, there is just too much stigma and psychological dependence. I've been looking for a medication that's as good and found it. I really think Ultracet/Tramadol delivers as good of analgesia as Vicodin but without the stigma and abuse potential. I started on Ultram ER 200 and had some side effects, namely bad headaches, drowsiness, and "crashing" in the evening. My doctor switched me to the Ultracet 37.5/325 and it's great. The acetaminophen eliminates the headaches and the drowsiness and crashing are eliminated because I can take my 3rd or 4th dose around 6pm and it carries me to bedtime. I also take Gabapentin 300mg at bedtime.

Ultracet (acetaminophen/tramadol): I have been taking Ultracet four times a day for five years due to a herniated disc in my neck and it soothes away my pain for hours which allows me to continue working.

Ultracet (acetaminophen/tramadol): Just want to say I've been taking Ultracet for about 8 years now. I have 3 herniated discs in my back. If it wasn't for Ultracet, I don't know what I would have done. It helps me to get up and do my daily routine. It helps me when I want to workout. It helps me cope with the everyday pain. I recommend Ultracet to anyone with pain. Remember though - it's not meant for everyone. Different people react differently to medications. So, ask your doctor if you can try it and see if it works for you. Good luck.

Ultracet (acetaminophen/tramadol): I've been taking ultracet for over a year now. My elbow was shattered and the radial head was destroyed. Because of the injury not healing properly my arm can't straighten out all the way. I also have terrible arthritis and tendonitis in that elbow which causes severe pain throughout the day. My doctors wanted to give me a healthy dose of percocet and oxycontin but I didn't want it. I was given ultracet and it has worked great ever since. I take anywhere from 4-8 in a day and can still function and do my job without being on a cloud.

Ultracet (acetaminophen/tramadol): I use ultracet (half a pill) for headaches and it works wonders. It's the only medicine that gets rid of my intense tension headaches. I would highly recommend this medication.

Ultracet (acetaminophen/tramadol): I was prescribed Ultracet after a car accident. I found the side effect of constipation a blessing in disguise. I rarely took the maximum dosage and realized it greatly helped my irritable bowel syndrome. I take one tablet per day and have little to no issues with loose bowels.

Ultracet (acetaminophen/tramadol): Neck, back and joint pain. Ultracet is amazing. 1 tablet per day sometimes two knocks the edge off the pain so that I can function.

acetaminophen/tramadol: I have had severe knee pain since I broke my femur about 2 1/2 year ago. My doctor prescribed tramadol/acetaminophen and it worked really well. Since then I have been prescribed Tramadol 100mg, time release 3 times per day. On it's own tramadol does not work as well for me. Clearly the Tramacet 3.27 is better for my joint pain.

Ultracet (acetaminophen/tramadol): I suffer from chronic ankle sprains, which I will be undergoing surgery to correct and after my most recent sprain that left me with 5 torn ligaments. My doctor put me on ultracet and it has worked wonders. I am able to function during the day and it controls the pain well enough for me to get a good nights sleep.

Ultracet (acetaminophen/tramadol): I suffer from Fibromyalgia. Although prescribed 8 tablets daily, I typically take 4 if I can get away with it. It's very effective for pain.
