    <abstract locale="en_US">This case report describes a rare occurrence of tramadol misuse resulting in a manic episode in a patient without a history of psychiatric disorders. The patient had used tramadol off-label for premature ejaculation. Following discontinuation of tramadol and initiation of mood stabilizer treatment, the manic symptoms resolved. Tramadol, despite its potential antidepressant properties, also poses a risk of inducing psychiatric disturbances. Diagnosis can be challenging and necessitates a thorough examination.
Management involves immediate cessation of tramadol and administration of mood stabilizers. Clinicians should exercise caution and closely monitor patients when prescribing tramadol, particularly for off-label indications.</abstract>
