How TAPENTROL 100 MG TABLET 10's Works

Tapentadol in TAPENTROL 100 MG TABLET 10's works in two distinct ways to control pain in your body. First, it binds to opioid receptors (mu-receptors) in the brain and spinal cord, which helps block pain signals from reaching your brain. Second, it prevents the reabsorption of a natural chemical messenger called norepinephrine. By keeping more norepinephrine active in your nervous system, it strengthens your body's own ability to quiet pain signals before they can cause discomfort.
