What Experts Say

Tramadol is a centrally acting opioid pain reliever that works on opioid receptors in the brain and also affects serotonin and noradrenaline pathways involved in pain signaling. Paracetamol adds a separate, non opioid pain relieving and fever reducing effect, so the combination targets pain through two routes at a lower tramadol dose than tramadol alone.

Doctors in Pakistan prescribe Trapra Tablet 37.5mg/325mg for pain that simple painkillers cannot control, such as after surgery, injury or dental procedures, and sometimes for chronic pain like arthritis or back pain. It is usually taken every four to six hours as needed, without exceeding the maximum daily dose.

Because it contains an opioid, this tablet carries a risk of dependence with prolonged use and should be taken only as directed. Drowsiness and dizziness are common, especially with the first few doses, so patients should avoid driving until they know how it affects them.
