Increasing knowledge suggests however that it is possible to distinguish between the therapeutic effects and side effects.

Preclinical and clinical studies have shown that the analgesic action derives from the reaction of the drug with the specific opioid receptors of the pain processing system. Animal experiments led to the assumption that tramadol hydrochloride is a substance in which the therapeutic effects and side effects can to a great extent be differentiated. In tramadol HCl, with its favourable side effect / analgesic action relation, we now have available for the first time an opioid for the therapy of severe pain with a minimized abuse and dependence potential, and which in therapeutic dos Leer el documento completo
