Summary

Main use
Relief of moderate to severe acute and chronic pain
Who takes it
Adults · Children
Adult dose
Children aged 12 and older and adults: The dosage should be adjusted according to the severity of the patient's pain and the therapeutic response. The initial recommended dose is 2 tablets, followed by a minimum interval of 6 hours, ensuring that the total daily dosage does not exceed 8 tablets. Administer the lowest effective dose for the shortest duration possible. Avoid prolonged administration beyond what is necessary, and if prolonged treatment is required due to the nature and severity of the disease, regular monitoring should be conducted to confirm the continuation of this medication. Elderly: Administer the usual adult dose, but be cautious as the half-life of tramadol increased by 17% in patients over 75 years old; thus, intervals of at least 6 hours are recommended. Renal impairment: In patients with moderate renal impairment (creatinine clearance of 10-30 mL/min), extend the dosing interval to 12 hours. The use of this medication is not recommended in patients with severe renal impairment (creatinine clearance less than 10 mL/min). Tramadol is removed very slowly during hemodialysis, so there is no need to redose this medication to maintain analgesic effects after dialysis. Hepatic impairment: In patients with moderate hepatic impairment, carefully consider extending the dosing interval for administration. This medication is not to be administered in patients with severe hepatic impairment.
Child dose
Children aged 12 and older and adults: The dosage should be adjusted according to the severity of the patient's pain and the therapeutic response. The initial recommended dose is 2 tablets, followed by a minimum interval of 6 hours before subsequent doses.
