In which:
Tramadol Hydrocholoride is a synthetic analgesic of the Opioid family, with central analgesic effect, and can be as addictive as Morphine. Tramadol Hydrocholoride reduces the re-entry of Norepinephrine and Serotonin into cells through the binding of the parent and metabolite of Tramadol, O-desmethyltramadol (M1), to the neuronal μ-receptor.
Paracetamol (Acetaminophen) belongs to the group of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Paracetamol is an active metabolite of Phenacetin, acting on Cyclooxygenase - Prostaglandin of the central nervous system causing vasodilation and increased peripheral blood flow, thereby helping the body to radiate heat and cool down. However, the central analgesic mechanism of Paracetamol has not been precisely determined.
