Can taking Tramadol and Oxycontin for MVA cause nausea?
Patient: I was prescribed Tramadol for pain related to an MVA over 5 years ago. I only take it PRN and occasionally will take an Oxycontin, but only with significant pain. I have noticed since I started using these I will have bouts of nausea even when I am not taking the drugs. Since I use these perhaps once/week or less, can the nausea still be related to the drugs? Thank you for your help! Doctor: Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.Tramadol and oxycontin are both opioids and nausea and vomiting is one of the common side effects of both drugs. Tablet domperione 10 mg needed to be taken half an hour before taking tramadol to prevent nausea and vomiting.Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.Regards,Dr. Jayesh Vaza
