Has anyone else experienced weight loss while taking tramadol? I started taking 1-2 50mg tabs a day and 3 months in I'm now taking 4-6. I have dropped 15 pounds without even trying and I think it's from the meds. It's not a bad thing, just wondering if anyone else experienced this. Overall I really like tramadol, it has worked better for me than norcos and oxycodone both. To me it's a wonder-drug that has helped my pain, and my anxiety!

Hello, Tiff! How are you doing?

According to FDA reports, it has been known to cause appetite loss and weight loss, in some people that take it. It also carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause other side effects, such as dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation.

Is there anything else I can help with?
