I'm 40, and I'm taking Tramadol to manage my chronic leg pain. I've only been taking it for a week and a half, and it's been working well. But are there any side effects of Tramadol that I should be aware of?

The most common side effects can be drowsiness and constipation. Make sure to take the medicine at home and do not drive after taking it. Also, one must be careful with Tramadol if taking certain types of antidepressants. For this and any other potential side effects, please address with your consulting physician.

Best of luck,
