<font dir="auto" style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font dir="auto" style="vertical-align: inherit;">Tapentadol should be used only under medical supervision. Do not share it with others, take more than prescribed, or crush or chew prolonged-release tablets. Seek emergency medical help if someone develops slow breathing, extreme sleepiness, or cannot be awakened.</font></font>
