Product Description
Product Name: Tapentadol Tablets
Strength: 200 mg
Form: Oral Tablet (Typically Extended-Release)
Category: Centrally Acting Analgesic / Opioid Agonist
Indication: Severe Chronic Pain Management
Tapentadol 200 mg is a potent centrally acting analgesic indicated for the management of severe chronic pain that requires continuous, long-term opioid treatment and for which alternative treatment options are inadequate.
It combines two mechanisms of action:
Mu-opioid receptor agonism to block pain perception
Norepinephrine reuptake inhibition to modulate the body’s response to pain signals
This dual action provides effective relief from neuropathic and nociceptive pain, commonly used in conditions such as:
Chronic musculoskeletal pain
Diabetic peripheral neuropathy
Osteoarthritis and lower back pain
Post-surgical or cancer-related pain (when appropriate)
Tapentadol 200 mg is generally formulated as an extended-release tablet for round-the-clock pain control and should not be used for as-needed pain relief.
To be used strictly under medical supervision. Due to its opioid component, there is a risk of dependency, misuse, and respiratory depression. Dose adjustments should be made carefully based on patient response and tolerance.
