Tramadol – Citra 100mg

Citra 100mg is a brand-name formulation of the prescription medication Tramadol Hydrochloride (frequently produced as Citra 100 or Citra-LS/Max formulations).

Tramadol is a centrally acting synthetic opioid analgesic. It possesses a dual mechanism of action:

1. It binds to mu-opioid receptors in the brain to alter how the body perceives and responds to pain.

2. It inhibits the reuptake of neurotransmitters like norepinephrine and serotonin in the central nervous system, which further helps block pain signals.

Primary Uses

• Moderate to Severe Pain Management: It is prescribed for managing moderate to moderately severe pain, such as acute post-operative pain or chronic conditions (like osteoarthritis) when non-opioid medications are insufficient.
