class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Tiparol is and what it is used for<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Tiparol is a morphine-like, pain-relieving drug that acts on special cells in the&nbsp;central nervous system&nbsp;(brain and spinal cord).&nbsp;The pain-relieving effect begins within about 1 hour and lasts up to 6 hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tiparol is used to treat moderate to severe pain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tramadol hydrochloride contained in Tiparol may also be approved to treat other conditions not mentioned in this leaflet.<br><a><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What you need to know before using Tiparol<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Do not use Tiparol<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>if you are allergic to tramadol hydrochloride or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6).<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, do not use Tiparol if you are taking medicines that contain\u00a0MAO inhibitors\u00a0(for depression or Parkinson&#8217;s disease\u00a0) or have taken such medicine in the last 14 days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You should also not use Tiparol if you are\u00a0acutely\u00a0poisoned with alcohol, sleeping pills, drugs that affect mood, mood, and emotional life (e.g. drugs for anxiety, worry, or depression), or painkillers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Warnings and precautions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before using Tiparol if you:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>suspect that you are addicted to medication<\/li><li>are <a href=\"https:\/\/zeepedia.com\/medical\/diseases\/peanut-allergy-and-nut-allergy\/\">hypersensitive<\/a> to&nbsp;opioids&nbsp;(the group of painkillers to which Tiparol belongs)<\/li><li>feeling weak or sleepy for no known reason (you may have a reduced level of consciousness or be in a state of shock)<\/li><li>has a head injury<\/li><li>have breathing difficulties<\/li><li>have&nbsp;epilepsy&nbsp;or convulsions<\/li><li>have any liver or kidney disease<\/li><li>suffer from depression and take antidepressants because some of them can interact with tramadol (see &#8220;Other medicines and Tiparol&#8221;).<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>There is a small risk that you may get a so-called serotonin syndrome, which can occur after taking tramadol in combination with certain antidepressants or tramadol alone.&nbsp;Seek immediate medical attention if you experience any of the symptoms of this serious syndrome (see section 4, \u201cPossible side effects\u201d).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you use Tiparol for a long time, there is a risk that you will become dependent and therefore you should not take Tiparol for longer than necessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tramadol is converted into the liver by an\u00a0enzyme.\u00a0Some people have a variant of this\u00a0enzyme\u00a0and this can affect people in different ways.\u00a0Some people may not get enough pain relief, while others are at greater risk of serious\u00a0side effects.\u00a0If you experience any of the following\u00a0side effects, stop taking this medicine and see a doctor immediately: slow or shallow breathing, confusion, sleepiness, small\u00a0pupils, nausea or vomiting, <a href=\"https:\/\/zeepedia.com\/medical\/diseases\/constipation\/\">constipation<\/a>, and loss of appetite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Sleep-related breathing disorders<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tiparol can cause sleep-related breathing disorders such as\u00a0sleep apnea\u00a0(breathing pauses during sleep) and sleep-related\u00a0hypoxemia\u00a0(low oxygen levels in the blood).\u00a0The symptoms can be breathing pauses during sleep, awakenings during the night due to shortness of breath, difficulty maintaining sleep, or severe drowsiness during the day.\u00a0Contact a doctor if you or someone else notices these symptoms.\u00a0The doctor may consider lowering your\u00a0dose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Talk to your doctor if you experience any of the following symptoms while taking Tiparol: extreme tiredness, loss of appetite, severe abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, or low\u00a0blood pressure.\u00a0This can be a sign of adrenal cortex failure (low levels of\u00a0cortisol\u00a0).\u00a0Contact a doctor if you experience these symptoms.\u00a0The doctor will decide if you need to take hormone replacement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Treatment with Tiparol can cause&nbsp;dry mouth&nbsp;with an increased risk of tooth decay.&nbsp;Therefore, be extra careful with oral hygiene and brush your teeth with fluoride toothpaste 2 times a day.<a><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Children and young people<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Use in children with breathing problems<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tramadol is not recommended for children with respiratory problems, as symptoms of tramadol poisoning may be worse in these children.<a><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Other medicines and Tiparol<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are using, have recently used, or might be using other medicines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tell the doctor if you are using other medicines while taking Tiparol.&nbsp;Certain medicines can affect or be affected by treatment with Tiparol, for example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>certain medicines for&nbsp;epilepsy&nbsp;(carbamazepine)<\/li><li>certain drugs that affect mood\/mood and emotional life, e.g. drugs for depression (&nbsp;MAO inhibitors&nbsp;or&nbsp;SSRIs&nbsp;)<\/li><li>other drugs that lower the seizure threshold<\/li><li>antibiotics&nbsp;(erythromycin)<\/li><li>antifungal (&nbsp;ketoconazole&nbsp;)<\/li><li>blood thinners (&nbsp;warfarin&nbsp;)<\/li><li>medicine for nausea and vomiting (ondansetron)<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The risk of&nbsp;side effects&nbsp;increases,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>if you are taking medicines that can cause convulsions (seizures), such as some antidepressants and antipsychotic medicines.&nbsp;The risk of having a seizure may increase if you take Tiparol at the same time.&nbsp;Your doctor will tell you if Tiparol is right for you.<\/li><li>if you are taking certain antidepressants.&nbsp;Tiparol may affect these medicines and you may develop serotonin syndrome (see section 4, &#8220;Possible side effects&#8221;).<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>You may become drowsy when taking Tiparol, especially if you simultaneously drink alcohol, or take any sleeping pills or painkillers that act on the\u00a0central nervous system.\u00a0You should therefore avoid this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Simultaneous use of Tiparol and sedative drugs such as\u00a0benzodiazepines\u00a0or related drugs increases the risk of drowsiness, breathing difficulties (\u00a0respiratory depression\u00a0),\u00a0and coma,\u00a0and can be life-threatening.\u00a0Because of this, concomitant use should only be considered when no other treatment options are possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your doctor nevertheless prescribes Tiparol together with sedative drugs, the&nbsp;dose&nbsp;and duration of treatment should be limited by your doctor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tell your doctor if you are taking sedatives and follow your doctor&#8217;s dosage recommendations carefully.&nbsp;It can help to inform friends and relatives to be aware of the signs and symptoms mentioned above.&nbsp;Contact your doctor when you experience such symptoms.<a><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pregnancy and breastfeeding<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, think you may be pregnant, or are planning to have a baby, ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice before using this medicine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is a risk that the fetus will be affected.&nbsp;Therefore, always talk to your doctor before using Tiparol if you are pregnant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tramadol is excreted in breast milk.\u00a0You should therefore not take Tiparol more than once during breastfeeding.\u00a0Alternatively, if you take Tiparol more than once, you should stop breastfeeding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Driving ability and use of machinery<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Tiparol\u00a0<strong>can impair the ability to react<\/strong>, which you should consider before driving a car or using machines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You are responsible for assessing whether you are fit to drive a motor vehicle or perform work that requires increased attention.\u00a0One of the factors that can affect your ability in these respects is the use of drugs due to their effects and\/or\u00a0side effects.\u00a0A description of these effects and\u00a0side effects\u00a0can be found in other sections.\u00a0Read all the information in this leaflet for guidance.\u00a0Discuss with your doctor or pharmacist if you are unsure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tiparol contains aspartame<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This medicine contains 10 mg of aspartame per\u00a0effervescent tablet.\u00a0Aspartame is a source of phenylalanine.\u00a0It may be harmful if you have phenylketonuria (PKU), a rare, inherited disease that leads to the accumulation of high levels of phenylalanine in the body).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Tiparol contains&nbsp;lactose<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have an intolerance to certain sugars, you should consult your doctor before taking this medication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Tiparol contains&nbsp;sodium<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This medicine contains 172 mg of\u00a0sodium\u00a0(the main ingredient in common\/table salt) per\u00a0effervescent tablet.\u00a0This corresponds to 9% of the maximum recommended daily intake of\u00a0sodium\u00a0for adults.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The maximum recommended daily\u00a0dose of\u00a0Tiparol contains 1376 mg\u00a0of sodium.\u00a0This corresponds to 69% of the maximum recommended daily intake of\u00a0sodium\u00a0for adults.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Consult a doctor or pharmacist about your need for 3 or more&nbsp;effervescent tablets&nbsp;daily for a longer period, especially if you have been prescribed a low-salt (low-sodium) diet.<br><a><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to use Tiparol<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Always use this medicine as directed by your doctor or pharmacist.&nbsp;Ask your doctor or pharmacist if you are unsure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your doctor will determine the&nbsp;dose&nbsp;to suit you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Does\u00a0one should be adjusted to the severity of your pain and your sensitivity to pain.\u00a0Usually, you should take the lowest\u00a0dose\u00a0that provides pain relief.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>The usual\u00a0dose<\/em>\u00a0for adults and children over 12 years: 1\u00a0effervescent tablet\u00a03 times daily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One effervescent tablet&nbsp;is dissolved in about \u00bd glass of water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Use for children and adolescents<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tiparol is not recommended for children under 12 years of age.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Elderly patients<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For elderly patients (over 75 years), it may take longer for tramadol to disappear from the body.\u00a0If this concerns you, your doctor may advise you to extend the time between\u00a0doses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Severe liver or kidney failure\/dialysis patients<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Patients with severe liver and\/or\u00a0kidney failure\u00a0should not take Tiparol.\u00a0If you have mild or moderate liver and\/or\u00a0kidney failure, your doctor may recommend you extend the time between\u00a0doses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">If you have used too much Tiparol&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have ingested too much medicine or if, for example,\u00a0If a child has ingested the medicine by mistake, immediately contact a doctor&#8217;s or hospital for an assessment of the risk and advice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have taken too large a\u00a0dose, your\u00a0pupils\u00a0may become smaller, you may feel nauseous and vomit, and have disturbances in consciousness, convulsions, and shortness of breath.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">If you forget to use Tiparol<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Do not take a double&nbsp;dose&nbsp;to make up for a missed tablet.<a><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">If you stop using Tiparol<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You should not suddenly stop taking this medicine unless your doctor tells you to.&nbsp;If you want to stop taking your medicine, you should first discuss it with your doctor, especially if you have been taking it for a long time.&nbsp;The doctor will tell you when and how to stop, which can be done by gradually lowering the&nbsp;dose&nbsp;to reduce the risk of developing unnecessary&nbsp;side effects&nbsp;(withdrawal symptoms).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have any further questions about this medicine, ask your doctor or pharmacist.<a><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Possible side effects<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Like all medicines, this medicine can cause\u00a0side effects, although not everybody gets them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stop taking Tiparol and contact your doctor immediately if you experience any of the following symptoms (&nbsp;angioedema&nbsp;)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>swelling of the face, tongue, or throat<\/li><li>difficulty swallowing<\/li><li>hives\u00a0and difficulty breathing<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The most common&nbsp;side effects&nbsp;are nausea and dizziness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Common (may

pressure, slow\u00a0pulse, difficulty urinating, muscle weakness and seizures, tremors, transient loss of consciousness (fainting), abnormal sensations (eg\u00a0itching, tingling, numbness).\u00a0Psychic\u00a0side effects\u00a0such as hallucinations, nightmares, confusion, altered mood, perception, and activity level may also occur.\u00a0Blurred vision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Has

Tiparol ends.\u00a0However, it has happened that people who have used medicines containing tramadol for a long time became excited, anxious, nervous, had difficulty sleeping, and had tremors or stomach and intestinal disturbances when they stopped taking the medicine.\u00a0Contact your doctor if you experience such side effects when you stop taking Tiparol.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2
