Neslide-100: Tramadol Hydrochloride 100 mg Capsule – Overview

What it is

Neslide-100 is an opioid analgesic that contains tramadol hydrochloride. It works in the brain to change how your body feels and responds to pain.

What it's used for

This medicine is indicated for the management of severe and persistent pain that needs an opioid painkiller and that has not been adequately controlled by other options, including immediate-release opioids. It is reserved for patients for whom alternative treatments are either not effective, not tolerated, or would not provide enough relief.

How it's taken

Neslide-100 should only be prescribed and supervised by a healthcare professional experienced with long-acting opioids. The lowest effective dose should be used for the shortest possible time, based on your specific needs. Never change your dose or stop taking it without your doctor's advice.

Common side effects

Serious side effects include addiction, abuse, misuse, life-threatening breathing problems, opioid-induced hyperalgesia (increased pain sensitivity), serotonin syndrome, and withdrawal symptoms in newborns if used during pregnancy. This list does not cover all possible effects. Talk to your pharmacist or doctor for complete information.

Important cautions

Do not use Neslide-100 if you are under 12 years of age, have severe breathing difficulties, or acute asthma. It must not be used in children under 18 after tonsil or adenoid surgery. Combining this medicine with benzodiazepines or other CNS depressants (such as alcohol or sedatives) can cause dangerous slowing of breathing. If you notice increased pain or symptoms such as agitation, fever, or fast heartbeat, stop taking the drug and seek medical help immediately.
