Tramadol is a prescription medication used to treat moderate to severe pain. It belongs to a class of drugs known as opioid analgesics and works by binding to opioid receptors in the brain, thereby decreasing the perception of pain.
In addition to its pain-relieving effects, tramadol also has some antidepressant properties, as it can increase the levels of certain neurotransmitters such as serotonin and norepinephrine in the brain. This dual mechanism of action can be beneficial for individuals experiencing both pain and depression.
