tapentadol
Tapentadol is an opiate pain medication.
Tapentadol is a prescription medicine that is used to treat moderate to severe pain.
Common side effects include;
-Gastrointestinal symptoms. Specifically constipation, nausea, vomiting, and stomach pain.
-Drowsiness/Tiredness, Dizziness
First time usage may cause a Headache.
Tapentadol depresses the nervous system to an extent. Meaning that mixing with any other depressant is very dangerous.
Such as;
-Alcohol
-Other opioids/narcotics
-Allergy Medications (Like Benadryl)
etc.
Tapentadol is a "Schedule II(2) Substance" this means, according to the U.S. DEA and FDA, it has a High Potential for Abuse and/or Misuse, which can lead to dependence and addiction.
Tapentadol is different than Tramadol, but is notably similar. Tapentadol is roughly 2x stronger than Tramadol.
For a more "street" calculation, 3mg (TAP) Tapentadol = 1mg(M) Morphine Oral. Tramadol, on the other hand, is 5mg(TRM) to 1mg(M).
The street price for Tapentadol IR per milligram is an estimated $0.18. So a rough equivalent for 1mg Morphine is $0.54. However; this is an illicit form, illegal and more dangerous. But as a Pharm student, I obviously advise against it.
Without going too far into details or semantics, Tapentadol is a very effective medication for pain, but, it should only be used under advisement and watch under a licensed medical professional. Any further questions or more info, talk to a certified pharmacologist or medical professional.
