Hi,
Tramadol is an opioid pain reliever commonly prescribed to treat moderate to severe pain in adults. Its common side effects include nausea, constipation, dry mouth, dizziness, constipation, itching, anxiety and vomiting.
It can also cause dependence and withdrawal symptoms upon its discontinuation. Had I been your doctor I would have suggested initial treatment of anti-inflammatory drugs along with methotrexate for the relief of joint pain associated with RA.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Mohammed Taher Ali, General & Family Physician
