Tramadol Hydrochloride Sustained-Release Tablets are analgesic medications primarily used for the treatment of moderate to severe pain. The main component, tramadol hydrochloride, acts on pain-related specific receptors in the central nervous system. By activating μ-opioid receptors, it reduces the transmission of harmful impulses, thereby relieving pain. Additionally, Tramadol Hydrochloride Sustained-Release Tablets also possess certain sedative, anti-anxiety, anticonvulsant, and emetic effects. When taking Tramadol Hydrochloride Sustained-Release Tablets, please pay attention to the following: 1. Take the medication exactly as prescribed by your doctor, including dosage and frequency; do not adjust the dose by yourself. 2. Swallow the tablet whole; do not chew, break, or crush it, as this may affect the sustained-release effect. 3. Avoid concurrent use of alcohol, sleeping pills, or other analgesic medications during treatment to prevent enhanced central nervous system depression.
