Contramal 100mg Injection 2ml
Contramal 100 MG Description
Contramal 100mg injection is a prescription medication primarily used to treat and prevent mild to moderate pain. Contramal contains Tramadol as its active ingredient that relieves pain due to arthri
tis, headache or lower back pain, etc. Often doctors prescribe the medication after an operation to relieve post-op pain. Contramal 100 mg injection belongs to a group of drugs called opioid analgesics that are essentially pain killers. Pain is caused due to certain receptors in the body, and it is an unpleasant sensation that can be triggered due to an injury or disease. Contramal injection can relieve general or localised pain. This medication is generally given under the supervision of a healthcare provider and should not be self-administered at home. It can be used to treat chronic pain (persistent pain). The dosage and frequency of the medication will be decided by the doctor depending on your symptoms and the severity of your condition. Contramal works like other opioids. It blocks pain signals from the brain and reduces pain perception. Some common side effects of the drug include dizziness, sleepiness, vomiting or dry mouth. If any of these side effects get worse or last for a longer duration of time, consult a doctor. Your doctor can suggest another medication or prescribe a similar drug that suits you better. Do not stop taking the drug suddenly if you feel better, as it can result in withdrawal symptoms. Talk to your doctor before stopping the medicine or increasing its dosage. Contramal 100mg injection is not recommended for children below 12 years.
