Not necessarily. Tramadol can interact with a huge number of drugs. Taking those two drugs together can cause something called serotonin syndrome. Symptoms of serotonin syndrome include increased heart rate, twitching, dilated pupils, high temperature, etc. In very severe cases you can go into shock.

Check with your pharmacist/doctor about how to or whether to use these drugs together.
