Hi all, my doctor prescribed me Tramadol Extended Release 100mg today because my back pain is getting worse. I am diagnosed with psoriatic arthritis in my knees, hips, and back. The pain was getting so bad that I was taking 7 percocets a day for pain. My doctor initially prescribed me 6 percs a day with refills every 2 weeks, that's 84 pills every 2 weeks. I was totally honest with my doctor about the percs. Are the Tramadol Extended Release pills safe to take? I only have to take 1 a day.
