> I would take a drug dependence with great results over a suicidal depression. If you respond well to tramadol, you will respond well to medications like suboxone or subutex. I personally know two people who are on subutex for life at managable doses. They have yet to become tolerant to that medication. From what I have seen by people who take tramadol. if they feel they are building a tolerance they cycle down for a couple days. Some people just take one 200mg extended release tablet. In
my desperate state I had a Dr. in my area ready to prescribe suboxone if need be.
>What is this suboxone people are talking about? I thought it was a detox med.
Anyways, I did add tramadol to my cocktail after waiting a heck of a long time. (I have chronic, weirdo, fibro-ish pain.) Wow, did I develop rapid tolerance. So it was not the answer I thought. I do take ultram 200mg daily as part of my cocktail. I have something going on with dopamine, opoids, whatever.
My 2¢ experience.
fb
MDD and C-PTSD. Chronic fatigue and pain. Good response to Cymbalta.
