Tramadol is a synthetic opioid medication that is used in veterinary medicine to manage moderate to severe pain. It works by binding to opioid receptors in the body, which can reduce pain signals in the nervous system. It is often used as part of a multimodal approach to pain management, alongside other medications and non-pharmacological interventions such as physical therapy. Side effects can include sedation, gastrointestinal upset, and in rare cases, seizures.
