i think opiate based painkillers should only be used for severe to seizure inducing severe pain. like being covered in 2nd degree burns or having your leg ripped off by a lion or something.
when i had my wisdom teeth pulled they gave me hydro7.5mgs. killed the pain but i kept sneaking them from my mom.(i was 16 at the time) i liked getting high back then and my parents knew so they kept all fun drugs away from me.
anyway, i got caught sneaking them, they immediately threw them out. all i could use was ibuprofen400mgs 2 200 mg, it worked just as well, if not better.
but....
when i was 22 i burned my hand. it hurt real bad. they gave me the ol' 5/500s
after the 800mg strength ibuprofen. 800 to 1600 mgs honestly did nothing for the pain. but 2 5/500s dulled it, then 7 killed it.
im guessing i could have "properly" managed the pain with 2.5.

I hope you don't mean Tramadol? Please don't let the dentist prescribe you that. IT IS VERY ADDICTIVE! That's what I am going through right now. It started out with norco 10/325 and I read that Tramadol was non-addictive....well that is complete BS! Go for Motrin 800mg taken with a food or a full stomach though. Good luck to you on that day!!
ok...I am so late...didn't read the YEAR of post...lol only 2 years late! haha!
