Question

My dog was perscribed tramadol 50mg. is it the same thing im on mine is tramadol hcl 50mg. they look the same?

Answer 1

Yes, it is the exact same thing, made by the same companies, labs and manufacturing facitilities.

We get people all the time coming in with scripts to fill for their poochies, including diabetic meds, heart meds, skin creams, etc.  Ask your doctor what you are paying in his office.  You might get it cheaper at Wally World.  But check with your local pharmacist as some states will not accept a script from a Vet, only an MD.

Answer 2

Yes, its the same thing, pretty much.  My moms poodle was prescribed the tramadol (ultram) also.
