Unlabelled: The aim of this study was to investigate the bioavailability of tramadol hydrochloride after oral administration of Tramadol--50 mg capsules, made in Synteza Pharmaceutical-Chemical Company in Poznań. As a reference preparation of Tramadol was used Tramal--50 mg capsules, (Grünenthal, Germany). The preparations were investigated in 20 healthy volunteers, according to a randomised two-way, cross-over design in the fasted state. Blood samples for determination of tramadol plasma concentrations were collected at pre-defined time points up to 24 h following drug administration. A washout period of one week separated both treatment periods. Tramadol plasma concentrations were determined by means of a validated HPLC method (fluorescence detector, verapamil as an internal standard). Values of 1,226.4 ng h/ml (Tramadol) and 1,397.01 ng x h/ml (Tramal) for the parameter AUC(0-infinity) demonstrate a nearly identical extent of drug absorption. Maximum concentrations--Cmax (217.81 ng/ml and 246.0 ng/ml) and time to reach maximum plasma concentration--Tmax (2.14 and 2.31 h) achieved for Tramadol and reference preparation did not differ significantly.
Conclusions: the bioavailability of tramadol hydrochloride after administration of Tramadol is the same as after administration of Tramal, whose clinical efficacy was tested before.

Multimodal analgesia is defined as using several drugs or techniques simultaneously to target different pain pathways or receptors to avoid pain propagation. This study evaluated the pharmacokinetic profile and comparative bioavailability of etoricoxib 90 mg and tramadol 50 mg dosing alone (reference drugs) or in a novel fixed-dose combination (test drug) under fasting conditions in Mexican healthy volunteers. This was a randomized, open-label, 3-way, crossover, single-dose, prospective, and longitudinal study with a 14-day washout period.

The multimodal analgesia strategy for acute pain involves using 2 or more analgesic medications with distinct mechanisms of action. This study assessed the bioavailability and tolerability of 2 tramadol hydrochloride (50 mg)/diclofenac sodium (50 mg) fixed-dose combination formulations under fed conditions to attend the Brazilian regulatory requirements for generic product registration. An open-label, randomized, single-dose, 2-period, 2-way crossover trial was conducted, including healthy subjects of both sexes.

Our objective was to assess the pharmacokinetic characteristics of metamizole when administered together with tramadol in a single intravenous dose to donkeys. Ten male animals received 10 mg∙kg of dipyrone associated with 2 mg∙kg of tramadol (TM) and 25 mg∙kg of dipyrone with 2 mg∙kg of tramadol (TM). Venous blood samples were taken from groups to determine the pharmacokinetics after drug administration, using initial brief intervals that were followed by extended periods until 48 h.
