Tapentadol, sold under the brand names Nucynta among others, is an opioid pain medication.[1] It may be used for moderate to severe pain of short or long duration.[1][6] It is taken by mouth.[1] Onset occurs in about 30 minutes and lasts for 4–6 hours.[4][5]

Common side effects include nausea, sleepiness, constipation, and itchiness.[1] Other side effects may include seizures, low blood pressure, addiction, serotonin syndrome, and insufficient breathing (respiratory depression).[1] Use during pregnancy may harm the baby.[1] Risk of misuse is similar to other strong opioids.[1] While how it works is not entirely clear, it acts on the μ-opioid receptor and increases both serotonin and norepinephrine levels.[1]

Tapentadol was approved for medical use in the United States in 2008,[1] Australia in 2010,[7] and in the UK and India in 2011.[8][9] In the United States it costs about 230 USD for 30 tablets of 50 mg immediate release formulation as of 2021.[10] This amount in the United Kingdom costs the NHS about £15.[6] It also comes in a slow release formulation.[6]
