Ralivia (tramadol HCl) is an extended-release oral tablet that slowly releases tramadol (an opioid analgesic) over a 24-hour period to manage continuous pain that is expected to persist for several days or more.
Ralivia (tramadol hydrochloride) is indicated for the management of pain of moderate severity in adults who require continuous treatment for several days or more. Ralivia (Tramadol HCl) is the brand name for once-daily extended-release tablets of a medication called tramadol. Ralivia (Tramadol HCl) belongs to a class of pain medications known as opioids. Unlike other opioids, it also changes the level of two chemicals in the brain: norepinephrine and serotonin. Changes in the amounts of these two chemicals can also provide pain relief.
