Tramadol Shortage (Page 3)
(Newest replies first)
Updated
Does anyone know of a pharmacy with tramadol available? I tried ordering it but everyine keeps telling me its out of stock and not available until after the holidays. I run out of my rx today and can't wait until after the holidays so any help is appreciate it.
Thanks rv but yes I have a tracking number. They said that it could take up to 21 days until they look into it. So
Here I sit. I'm glad I had another source.
Has anyone heard about this? Found it in an article from Nov 1.
"The Food and Drug Administration is proposing a regulation designed to reduce the number of drug shortages.
The draft regulation which was first unveiled on Thursday, will require drug companies to let the federal government know if they plan to stop making a drug or anticipate an interruption that could lead to a drug shortage.
Additionally, the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) wants to put new restrictions on the opiate tramadol.
By classifying the drug as a Schedule 4 substance, it would join the ranks of Xanax, Ambien and other substances that the agency considers to have a low risk of abuse or dependence.
The DEA says that the action is based on a recommendation from the Department of Health and Human Services and its own evaluations."

Did they give you any tracking information kb? If sent via regular post it could take that long internationally cause of distance, customs, and all - but i wouldn't want to wait 21 days! I hope you didn't use western union or other payments that would give you as the consumer no recourse if your order did nt arrive.
I'm having a problem with the overseas company. I ordered on Oct 21and tracking says it left on the 22nd and than nothing. I have emailed them, they said to wait it could talk up to 21 days. Anyone else have that problem.
Anthony. If you could use a hand on some info. to help you, check out 1248 where meds chat told me to get ahold of them via their contact page. Where it show... contact in blue, click on it. I have already talked to them and they are just waiting for you to ask permission to get my email address. I know exactly what you are going threw and would like to help you. Pain isn't a laughing matter. If you need help, just follow those steps and they should give you my email address and I can help you find help.
I so much appreciate the compassion, nobody else seems to care, including my Doctors!! Medschat has been a godsend for a caring community!!
Anthony. Go ahead and click on the blue link that says contact by the meds chat administration, where they answered my question and ask them if you could be given permission to receive my email address from me personally. I already asked them on my part and I can try to help you out.
IMHO, do you happen to know how to ask meds chat for permission on giving out my email address. Anytime I know someone needs help, I want so much to help, bec. I've been down some pretty gloomy roads and I know what it's like to not have any resources and to feel hopeless. Thanks.
Anthony. The people on this site are unbelievably helpful and have also shown me such kindness and offered tons of help. If we can find a way to guide you in the direction of receiving help, one way or another we will. Like I mentioned. If meds chat gives me permission to give you my email address, I will be more then willing to help you out. We are not supposed to give out detailed info. or we would, trust me. So, I will wait to see if they allow me to do so.
I am surprised at the compassion I have been given as a new member on the site. Thank you for your hard work. This seems promising. Much appreciate everyones time!
Anyone know how to contact the meds chat room to ask them if I can give my email to Anthony? Can't see where to contact them for some reason!!! Thanks.
Anthony. If the meds chat room would give you and I permission, I would be more then happy to help you out. They just need to give me the okay and hopefully you and I can exchange email address's.
Anthony sorry to hear about what you're dealing with. You might consider working with a company outside the USA if you are really in a bind. Let me know if this company ends up working out for you. Their contact is from a (tijuana pharmacy) and then it is at google's email service (all one word together). hope it makes sense.
Hey everyone! 15+ yr. migraine sufferer here. This medication is all that works on me. I just lost my prescription for being an inactive patient and I have no insurance. I have been everywhere, it is hard to know who to trust. If there any resources available, can someone please let me know. Thank you oh so much!
Well I think that things have stabilized abit only because the FDA is really cracking down on some of the other meds out there. They are probably making Hydrocodone a schedule II substance which means a doctor wont be able to call in a prescription anymore for that. And also ironically there is a new high dose form of pure hydro coming to the market which wont be abuse proof at all, and that seems to be crazy and going against the first statement that they are cracking down in the first place. If you wonder what drug i am talking about then just look up Zohydro Er it's all over the news.
So back to my original point i have a feeling that tramadol is not being targeted as much at the moment. Does anyone agree? I know of more than 1 person using a service from mexico without a problem, i think its from a pharmacy in tijuana mexico. I think the govt must be running around in circles or something. Good luck + be safe!
I generally go on this site if there's been a response and I've also noticed barely any activity in a long time!!! I haven't found any new sites and i still use the same guy with general delays, but nothing drastic. I've been wondering the same thing as you all...lol
Or maybe there's a website we don't know about. Lol
LOL, yeah it has been kb. Does that mean that everybody has been able to get their meds lately? Here's hoping ;)
Pretty quiet in here
Has anyone ever had your package held up customs?
