If you go back to March 30th 2001 there was an attorney that came to this site looking for individuals who might have become addicted to Ultram. That is all i know about Ultram. I was on it for such a short period of time and it did nothing for me. I will paste his email here:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- I am an attorney doing research on the addictive potential of Ultram. If I
-- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- find that many people have become physically dependent on Ultram, I will consider bringing a class action lawsuit against the manufacturer. If you have experienced withdrawal syptoms when stopping Ultram, or are unable to stop taking Ultram, I would be grateful if you could drop me an email, or call me at (212) 308-4338. All contacts will be protected by the attorney-client priviledge. Sincerely,
-- Joshua FriedmanKarla
