Debbie,

ALL opioid pain medications—including tramadol—cause constipation. Many other kinds of medication used for pain—e.g. antiseizure, antidepressant meds, etc.—have the potential to cause constipation.

When in question, consult the prescription insert for side effects, or goggle: side effects [medication name]
