Does this drug cause headaches?

It contains Tramadol, and Acetaminophen, so yes the FDA does warn that it may cause headaches as a side effect. You may also experience nausea, dizziness, constipation, and dry mouth.

Are you on any other medications? Do you normally experience headaches?

Another thing to consider, and may be a cause of headaches, is that tramadol has SNRI properties. These are anti-depressant effects. They do inhibit the reuptake of serotonin and norepinephrine and that could, also, potentially cause a headache. Considering ultracet has paracetamol in it, an analgesic commonly used to alleviate headaches, I would think that the other effects it has on the brain (mentioned above) are likely to cause headaches.

BTW I do realize this question is 10 years old, lol. I just thought I'd add my 2 cents anyway in case someone else happens to have the same question somewhere down the road.
