Description

Marol 100mg Prolonged-Release Tablets

Marol 100mg Prolonged-Release Tablets contain tramadol hydrochloride, an opioid analgesic used for the treatment of moderate to severe pain when opioid treatment is considered appropriate.

What Is Marol 100mg?

Marol 100mg prolonged-release tablets are formulated to release tramadol gradually over an extended period. This allows the medicine to provide sustained pain relief rather than releasing the full dose immediately.

The prolonged-release formulation is intended to be taken at regular intervals according to the prescribing instructions. Tablets should be swallowed whole and should not be crushed, chewed or split unless specifically instructed by a healthcare professional.

How Does Tramadol Work?

Tramadol acts on opioid receptors in the central nervous system and also affects the reuptake of certain neurotransmitters involved in pain signalling. These combined actions help reduce the perception of pain.

The response to tramadol varies between individuals. Treatment should therefore be individually prescribed and monitored.

Marol 100mg Safety Information

Common side effects may include nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, constipation, headache and sweating. Tramadol can cause dependence and withdrawal symptoms, particularly with prolonged use.

Avoid alcohol and take particular care with other medicines that cause drowsiness. Tramadol can also interact with antidepressants and other medicines affecting serotonin, potentially increasing the risk of serotonin syndrome.

Do not drive or operate machinery if you feel drowsy, dizzy or unable to concentrate. Taking more than the prescribed dose can cause serious or potentially life-threatening breathing problems, seizures or loss of consciousness.

Do not stop long-term treatment suddenly without medical advice, as the dose may need to be reduced gradually.
