Ukraine has the world’s only tramadol drug list

Ukraine has the world’s first drug tramadol in the list of narcotic and psychotropic substances and precursors, RIA Novosti reported. Experts from the World Health Organization has not yet consider him a narcotic drug.

Such a decision caused by the fact that, according to Interior Minister of Ukraine Yuri Lutsenko, tramadol is one third of the total quantity of psychotropic substances seized by law enforcement agencies in the country.

relieves pain tramadol, synthesized in 1970 the German pharmaceutical company Gr? nenthal GmbH, operates on several mechanisms, one of which is similar to the action of opioid analgesics such as morphine. At the same time, it causes much less euphoria and has less potential for abuse and drug dependence than narcotic analgesics. Therefore, it is not reckoned to narcotic substances in any country in the world. In May of this year, Sweden has reclassified tramadol to controlled substances, ie, its production and distribution of controlled drugs from pharmacies but its contents are dispensed through the usual recipes.

Lutsenko also hastened to declare that the introduction of tramadol in the list of narcotic drugs, psychotropic substances and precursors is a great victory over drug trafficking in Ukraine. What drug trafficking takes place in the pharmaceutical drug in comparison with the illegal supply and manufacture of heroin, amphetamines and marijuana, time will tell. And the effect of innovation, probably the fastest be affected by requiring anesthesia patients, which will be restricted access to the drug.
