Dear friend, thank you for your consultation. I have gone through your case history very carefully. I sincerely believe she is getting right and adequate amount of treatment for osteoporosis. And as far as side effects are concerned, calcium can cause renal stone in long term use. And regular use of tramadol commonly causes agitation, anxiety, euphoria and constipation.apart from that you don't need to worry that much.my best wishes for your wife. Thank you.
