Tramadol hydrochloride is an opioid pain medication that works by binding to opioid receptors in the brain and spinal cord, which reduces the sensation of pain. Paracetamol is a pain reliever and fever reducer that works by blocking the production of certain chemicals in the body that cause pain and inflammation.
