Cyclobenzaprine and Tramadol interaction

…Syndrome The development of a potentially life-threatening serotonin syndrome has been reported with cyclobenzaprine when used in combination with other drugs, such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), serotonin norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs), tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs), tramadol, bupropion, meperidine, verapamil, or MAO inhibitors.

Postmarketing cases of serotonin syndrome have been reported with the concomitant use of oral cyclobenzaprine and other drugs, such as SSRIs, SNRIs, TCAs, tramadol, bupropion, meperidine, verapamil, or MAO inhibitors [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2) ] .

Based on its structural similarity to TCAs, concomitant use of TONMYA with: MAO inhibitors may be life-threatening [see Contraindications (4) ] , Alcohol, barbiturates, and other CNS depressants may increase the risk of adverse reactions associated with these drugs, Tramadol may increase the seizure risk, Guanethidine or other similar acting drugs may block the…

If serotonin syndrome symptoms occur with the use of other serotonergic drugs, immediately discontinue TONMYA.

Other serotonergic Drugs: Serotonin syndrome has been reported ( 5.2 , 7 )

…antidepressants (TCAs), triptans, 5-HT3 receptor antagonists, drugs that affect the serotonin neurotransmitter system (e.g., mirtazapine, trazodone, tramadol), certain muscle relaxants (i.e., cyclobenzaprine, metaxalone), monoamine oxidase inhibitors (those intended to treat psychiatric disorders and also others, such as linezolid and intravenous methylene blue) Monoamine…

Concomitant use of opioids with benzodiazepines or other central nervous system (CNS) depressants, including alcohol, may result in profound sedation, respiratory depression, coma, and death.

Risks From Concomitant Use With Benzodiazepines Or Other CNS Depressants Concomitant use of opioids with benzodiazepines or other central nervous system (CNS) depressants, including alcohol, may result in profound sedation, respiratory depression, coma, and death.

Reserve concomitant prescribing of Tramadol Hydrochloride Extended-Release Capsules and benzodiazepines or other CNS depressants for use in patients for whom alternative treatment options are inadequate [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3) , Drug Interactions (7) ] .

Screen patients for risk of substance use disorders, including opioid abuse and misuse, and warn them of the risk for overdose and death associated with the use of additional CNS depressants including alcohol and illicit drugs [see Drug Interactions (7) ] .
