Modified-release tablets and capsules release tramadol slowly over time to give a more prolonged and even effect. These must be swallowed whole and should not be broken, crushed or chewed, otherwise they may release the drug too quickly and cause side-effects.
If you have been given orodispersible (melt-in-the-mouth) tablets, these will dissolve quickly in your mouth when sucked, or they can be dissolved in half a glass of water before taking.
Before beginning treatment, read the manufacturer's printed information leaflet.
Take tramadol exactly as you have been directed by your doctor. Never take more than the prescribed dose.
