Who told you that Tramadol isn't a narcotic? It is....last year it was added to the Schedule II narcotic list by the DEA.
It is a opiate receptor and therefore helps you with withdrawal symptoms.
My concern though is if you are taking that many hydrocodone you should have know that your other medication was also a narcotic. You can verify this with your pharmacist. Tramadol is considered physically addictive but personally I have heard it both ways. I have taken tramadol but like you, I took much stronger medication at the same time, so I couldn't tell you if I was addicted to it or not, I tend to say I wasn't. You must also remember that their are 2 forms of addiction physical and mental.
I'm not trying to be rude when I ask you this, I promise....but why are you taking so many lortabs. If you need that kind of pain relief there are other, safer drugs to take long term.
I hope I wasn't out of line, just wanted to tell you incase your doctor hadn't, they are so weird about meds these days!!
Hope this helped ya!! :-)
Edit: I just read where someone said it is a natural substance!!
OMG , NO....it is the exact opposite, it is synthetic. Please talk to your pharmasist so that you get a correct answer, I cannot believe what I just read.
