Comparing the clinical profiles, pharmacokinetic behaviors, and safety indices of these two therapeutic agents.
Antagonist at dopamine D2 receptors, also blocks alpha-1 adrenergic, histaminergic, and muscarinic receptors.
PROMAPAR is a brand name for tramadol, a centrally acting analgesic that binds to mu-opioid receptors and inhibits serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake, modulating pain perception.
2.5-10 mg orally every 8-12 hours; maximum 40 mg/day. For severe psychosis: initial 10 mg IM, then 5-10 mg IM every 6-8 hours; maximum 30 mg/day IM.
5 mg orally twice daily, titrated up to maximum 60 mg/day in divided doses.

Terminal elimination half-life: 20-30 hours; clinically, steady-state achieved in 5-7 days; prolonged in elderly and hepatic impairment
Terminal elimination half-life is 2-4 hours (mean 3 hours) in adults with normal renal function; prolonged to 8-15 hours in moderate-to-severe renal impairment.
Renal: <1% unchanged; Hepatic: extensively metabolized, metabolites excreted in urine (50-60%) and feces (30-40%)
Primarily renal (70-80% as unchanged drug) via glomerular filtration and tubular secretion; biliary/fecal elimination accounts for approximately 20%.
