The opioid agonist tramadol is now available in an oral solution (Qdolo – Athena Bioscience) for management of pain severe enough to require an opioid and for which alternative treatment options are inadequate. Tramadol has been available for years in immediate-release tablets and capsules, extended-release capsules (Ultram, and others), and in a fixed-dose combination tablet with acetaminophen (Ultracet, and generics).
