Can tramadol be prescribed to patients with depression or anxiety and what are the risks or benefits of using it alongside mental health treatments?
Tramadol is occasionally used off-label to treat anxiety or depression, but it is primarily an opioid pain reliever. Prescribing it can carry risks such as dependency and may exacerbate symptoms of depression and anxiety in some patients.
