Weighing the Side Effects and Cost of Taking Ultram

You should never take any kind of medication without first checking with a medical professional who gives you a thorough physical examination first. There are always risks involved when taking either prescription or non-prescription drugs so you should evaluate any potential issues that may arise as a result of taking something for pain. There are narcotic and non-narcotic alternatives that each have different side effects and costs involved.

Ultram is one of the non-narcotic alternatives. This generally means that it is less addictive and has less of an impact on the body. Narcotic pain killers can cause liver or kidney damage and should not be used when you are dealing with chronic pain that will involve long term dependency. Addiction is also a problem with narcotic pain relievers and can cause additional health and life problems. Many an addict has never know the horrors of addiction until they tried narcotic pain relievers.

Another issue with pain medication is cost. If you have good health insurance then you most likely just pay a small co-pay on prescription drugs, but if you don't, as many Americans don't, then you will be paying a lot of money for narcotic pain relievers and not so much for non-narcotic ones. Ultram is available through Online Pharmacies and is generally much more affordable than narcotic alternatives.

How often are you going to have to take a medication during the day and how long will you need to take it? These are two questions that need to be asked when you take a pain killer of any kind. The number of times you take something during a day will tell you how much of a potential there is for damage on your body. Knowing how long you need to take something will tell you what you should or should not take.

Narcotic pain relievers are not good for long term conditions. Chronic pain should be treated with non-narcotics so your internal organs that process chemicals will not be under heavy strain and in danger of failing. Ultram is a good alternative for chronic pain.

Non-surgical Treatments For Arthritis

The aging of the Baby Boomer Generation, the leading edge of which is now entering its sixties, brings with it a flood of degenerative diseases, including the various forms of arthritis. Because of the widespread pain and disability caused by arthritis, and the vast resources consumed in its treatment, arthritis is becoming a major health problem.

There are two main forms of arthritis--degenerative or osteoarthritis and inflammatory arthritis. OA is by far the more common disease, afflicting many of us as we age. Though commonly thought of as "wear and tear" arthritis, it's actually a much more complex biological problem, in which the protective coating of articular cartilage first loses water, then becomes soft, fragments and eventually erodes to expose the underlying bone. The "how" is well described, though the "why" is still unknown, save for cases where injury or trauma has caused cartilage damage. In response to this cartilage damage, the lining of the joint, the synovium, becomes secondarily inflamed, producing excessive joint fluid and joint swelling.

By contrast, inflammatory arthritis is a primary disease of the synovium. When this membrane becomes inflamed, it thickens and swells and produces destructive enzymes (erosive chemicals), which literally digest and ultimately destroy the articular cartilage, exposing the underlying bone. Another major difference from OA is that an inflammatory arthritis is a systemic disease, which affects the entire body, not only joints, but other connective tissues, as well. For this reason, they are often referred to as collagen diseases, named after the protein collagen from which the connective tissues are made.

There are a host of diseases classified as inflammatory arthritis, but the prototype for this group of diseases is Rheumatoid Arthritis. RA is theorized to be an autoimmune disease, that is, the body's own immune system erroneously behaves as though the body's own tissues are foreign and attacks them.

Though its cause is not known, it is likely there is a genetic predisposition to this disease, as it is more common in women and more common when a parent, or grandparent has had the disease.

If complete destruction of the articular cartilage has occurred within the joint, with broad surfaces of completely exposed, bare bone, nothing short of a total joint replacement will relieve pain, restore function and correct deformity. However, joint replacement is a major surgical procedure, with a number of potential risks. So it's best avoided until a joint is truly end stage and there is no other alternative. I believed that when I was actively performing those procedures, and I believe it now.

Fortunately, there are a number of other treatments and non-surgical methods from across the entire medical spectrum, including mainstream conventional, alternative and complimentary techniques. The object is to relieve pain, prevent or at least delay irreparable cartilage damage, and so avoid surgery, as long as possible. To this end, treatment goals are first, pain relief and then, restoration of function.

Pain is a result of chemical and mechanical stimulation of pain nerves within the subchondral bone and within the synovium and soft tissues around the joint. The cartilage itself has no nerves and can feel no pain. So to effect this, anti-inflammatory measures, combined with weight loss, behavior modification and analgesics help to relieve joint pain.

Actual weight reduction is helpful because for every pound of Bodyweight lost, the force across the weightbearing joints (hip & knee) is reduced by three to four pounds. In addition, the use of a cane, crutches, or a walker can also lighten the load a joint carries, as well as providing stability. Appropriate bracing, with either custom or off-the-shelf braces can restore stability, optimal joint alignment and optimize distribution of joint forces. Well cushioned shoes are also effective as they absorb the shocks of walking. And avoiding those activities that subject the joints to increased joint forces and shocks, like running or jumping (eight to ten times bodyweight), will slow the degenerative process.

Anti-inflammatory measures are effective for both degenerative and inflammatory arthritis, because inflammation plays a role in producing pain in each. OTC NSAID's (Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs) like Advil or Aleve can be effective, as can their prescription strength forms. These drugs, however, MUST be taken with FOOD or MILK, to protect the stomach from excess acidity, reflux, ulcer production or bleeding, which are well known side effects of these medications. This also applies to Aspirin, which should NOT be taken with NSAID's, as they both share the same side effects.

Tylenol (acetaminophen) CAN be taken, though, as it relieves pain (and reduces fever, like aspirin), but has NO anti-inflammatory effects, nor the side effects of NSAID's. Stronger analgesics, like Codeine, Darvon, Hydrocodone (Vicodin), Percocet (Oxycodone), etc. are narcotics and are only available by prescription, under a physician's supervision. Their main downside is the potential for addiction. There are some non-narcotic analgesics, like Ultram, but these too are prescription drugs.

A number of Disease Modifying Agents, like methotrexate are especially effective in controlling the inflamed synovium of inflammatory arthritis. These medications, and others like Ridaura, Humera, and Enbrel or some combinations of these may be effective, but require close monitoring by blood tests and the close supervision of a physician, preferably a rheumatologist (specialist in arthritic diseases).

Dietary measures to relieve pain include avoidance of red meat and other sources of arachadonic acid, which is a chemical precursor to prostaglandins (chemical mediators of pain). The use of Omega 3
Fatty Acids found in Fish Oil or Flax Seed Oil is also effective, due to its intrinsic anti-inflammatory properties. Vitamin E has anti-inflammatory properties, as well. Glucosamine sulfate, with or without Chondroitin sulfate has generated mixed reviews in a number of studies, in the US and Europe. But except for a tendency to elevate blood sugars in diabetics, it is harmless, may support articular cartilage and provide some pain relief. Various herbs, including ginger, turmeric, devil's claw, and enzymes like bromelain have known anti-inflammatory effects.

Topical measures include counter-irritants, like capsaician sprays and creams, derived from the oil of hot peppers, which can relieve pain. DMSO (Dimethyl Sulfoxone), a by-product of wood chips, has its own anti-inflammatory properties and in addition is a carrier molecukle--it can carry other substances through the skin to the tissues below, like steroids (hydrocortisone), or analgesics (morphine). Used by vetrinarians and athletic trainers with good effect for years, it is still not FDA approved for this purpose and must be used with caution.

Alternative methods include accupressure or accupuncture, chiropractic, physical therapy modalities (like ultrasound, diathermy, iontophoresis, cold laser, hydrotherapy, and massage therapy) and of course, strengthening and stretching exercises, for long term joint support and optimal function.

All these methods are effective for some people, but often work best in combination. The trick is to find that individualized combination that works for you. Getting your doctor involved early in that process is probably the best thing you can do. But regardless which methods you and your doctor choose, as you can see, although there is no cure for arthritis, there are many non-operative ways that you can relieve pain and maintain or restore function, while avoiding, or delaying surgery.

Headache Medications Unraveled

Headache medications include several classes of drugs that are effective. Most of them are quite effective as migraine headache treatments to prevent migraines.

Most of the time, these drugs can be taken at doses MUCH LOWER than doses used for other problems. Unfortunately, some people are frightened of headache medications and will refuse to even try them, believing they will get every side effect listed.

Let's review the most commonly used prescription drugs from a sensible point of view, OK?

Anti-Seizure Medications
This is probably the most effective class of drugs for lowering frequency and pain level of headaches. They are generally prescribed in doses far lower than those used for seizures. These drugs are appropriate for you if:

1. You have 1 or 2 severe, disabling headaches per month and/or...

2. You have 2 to 3 headaches per week.

The most effective drugs for headache are as follows:

* Topamax,
* Depakote,
* Keppra,
* Zonegran.

Anti-Depressants
Now don't freak out! This class of drugs is very effective not only to treat mood but also to alleviate pain. Almost 85% of all chronic pain patients have depression and/or anxiety to some degree. Chronic illness such as fibromyalgia, MS, diabetes, and headaches can all lead to depression if the condition is more than six months old. In relation to headache, the medication is tailored to the patient's particular symptoms.

Opiods
This includes drugs such as hydrocodone, Lortabs, Tylenol with Codeine, Fiorcet and Ultram for headache.

Many times these medications are handed out by well meaning health care professionals to try and treat a patient in acute pain of headache. Unfortunately, too many times patients become addicted to these drugs as the headaches become worse and worse.

Using these types of headache medications more than three times per week for headaches can actually make the headache syndrome worse.

Anti-Psychotics
Once again don't freak out! These medications are not first line in treating constant chronic daily headache, but they are effective when nothing else has worked. They tend to dampen the pain pathways in the brain and reduce the frequency and pain level of the headaches.

The most promising in the class currently for headaches are Seroquel and Zyprexa and once again used very low doses to treat chronic headaches.

Beta-Blockers
Beta-blockers such as Inderal (propranalol) were also one of the earlier drugs found to be effective in preventing migraine. Unfortunately, it is not as effective as anti-seizure medications, but that does not mean it might not work for you. It is important to realize that your physician may have a good reason for choosing this if other drugs have failed, or if you also have hypertension.

Calcium Channel Blockers
This is another class of anti-hypertensives like beta-blockers that may help treat migraine. This drug in particular is effective if you have a lot of vertigo or spinning feelings with your headaches. The most commonly used drug for headaches is verapamil.

Like the beta-blockers, this drug has the potential to lower your blood pressure and in addition may cause constipation.

It is important to ask your provider about all options available to you to treat your headaches. Treatments are individualized so be prepared to be patient and listen to advice from a specialist.
