Tramadol is harmful when taken in large doses but it can be harmful even in normal doses if you have an unhealthy liver. Tramadol is a medication used for the therapy of mild-to-moderate pain.

When a person intakes alcohol heavily over the course of decades, the body starts to replace the liver's healthy tissue with scar tissue which results in liver damage.
