> Hi there Ace, glad to hear the combo is showing promise!
Thanks man!
My advice is to give the 50mg dose another two or three days, primarily for the purpose of developing some tolerance to the sedation (and possible nausea at higher doses).I agree.
Beyond that, and with your doctor's permission, moving up to the standard 100mg dose sounds perfectly logical to me.You think as a single dose or 50mg bid?
It would probably be best taken before bed at first, but future experimentation will help you decide the correct dosing intervals. It sounds as if your post is implying an all-day effect from a single dose?Yes, it definately feels that way.
If so, that's wonderful -- I think there is an extended-release form available in Australia as well, for future reference. Can't think of the name offhand.
I'll check that out. In addition, I have noticed a little stimulation of my oCD symptoms...and this is a good thing. As Michael Jenike mD and other OCD specialists have stated an initial rise in OCD symptoms usually predicts a good response.
I have seen reports of rapid remmission of OCD with Tramadol, this usally means 1-2 weeks me thinks. Of course, OCD remission would be more conducive at 100mg.
I have no doubt that at higher doses of Tramadol, i will feel in heavan! I'm even thinking of giving Nardil a 3 month break (to negate the 30% poop-out I have had on it) and taking 200-300mg Tramadol in that break. What do you think??

PS- when on Nardil what was the highest you raised Tramadol and what dosing schedule did you use?
