Xtrapel Capsule 50 mg contains Tramadol Hydrochloride, a centrally acting opioid analgesic used for the management of moderate to moderately severe pain. It works by altering the way the brain and nervous system respond to pain signals. Xtrapel is commonly prescribed when non-opioid pain relievers are not sufficient for pain control.
