I am having horrible cramps so my mom had my doctor called me in a prescription and she just gave it to me and said be careful this is a narcotic. So I researched it and it said that you shouldn't take it if your under 18 (which I am). I'm wondering if I should take it or have my doctor give me another prescription?

Actually it is not a narcotic yet, but they are trying to make it one. Because just like any pain reliever you can become addicted. That's probably why it said not to take under 18.If your Doc prescribed it I'm pretty sure he knows your age and that it wouldn't do any harm to you. I've been prescribed it before and it does help minor and I mean minor pain. Just take it as prescribed and you should be fine. I hope that it helps you feel better!
Tramadol is a "pseudo-opioid." fairly it has some strikes like an opioid (codeine, morphine) yet they're very minimum. yet that's sedating for some human beings. It additionally acts like an antidepressant (Cymbalta, Effexor). it fairly is going to effectively advance serotonin and norepinephrine on your techniques like an antidepressant will. That area is typically stimulating and would help your temper. And finally it has thoroughly unique anti inflammatory strikes which decrease discomfort. each and every of those chemical outcomes is susceptible yet at the same time the medicine is sturdy for gentle discomfort. Your prescription would desire to declare your dose and how many times to take it. yet a typical dose is 50- a hundred mg 4 cases daily as mandatory. that's often taken each and every 4-6hrs. under no circumstances exceed 2 pills (a hundred mg) at one time and not in any respect take greater suitable than 4 hundred mg/day (8 pills). it may reason area outcomes like all drug can. it could make your abdomen disappointed yet that's no longer in all likelihood difficulty-loose. some human beings gets a sprint sleepy yet frequently human beings are not getting fairly drained. certainly greater human beings get hyper and have greater potential than drained. i'd take a million in the experience that your headache is poor. optimistically you have it sluggish till now artwork. in the experience that your precription says you may take 2 pills then you definately would take the 2d pill if the 1st one labored nicely. that's sometimes terrific to "hit" a headache and do bigger doses for a rapid time. that usually gets experience of a headache speedier than basically using small doses. considering the fact which you have under no circumstances taken this each and every thing is a wager. you will have not any area outcomes or you would be a million in a million who has dozens of area outcomes. you will get drained or you will sense such as you had 12 cups of espresso. even nonetheless that's a sturdy drugs and area outcomes are low. only under no circumstances take greater suitable than you will desire to. whether a doctor would aid you recognize to take six hundred mg/day do no longer do this. Tramadol is sturdy a known doses and that's amazingly effectual yet while too lots is taken it has very severe issues which could happen.
Well, in very fine print for the medicine it might say that the rules for not taking it if you're under 18 could be changed if you're doctor says so. I think you're fine since you had your doctor prescribe it for you, but you can ask them just to make sure (;
