Uses

Moderate to severe pain

Medicinal Benefits

Opdol Tablet 10's is a combination of two drugs: Tramadol and Acetaminophen to treat moderate to severe pain. Tramadol mimics the action of endorphins (pain-reducing chemicals) in the brain and spinal cord. Thereby inhibits the transmission of pain signals from nerves to brain. Also, it improves the effect of serotonin and noradrenaline (chemical messengers in the brain and spinal cord) and helps in relieving pain. Acetaminophen is an analgesic (relieves pain) and antipyretic (reduces fever) that inhibits the production of certain chemical messengers in the brain known as prostaglandins responsible for pain and fever.
