It may be possible to take both, but I happen to be allergic to both of them. I got a severe rash on my thighs and back from both. Found out about sulfa drugs in 1989, and Tramadol in 2012.

Hi, Inactive ingredients in Tramadol tablets are: pregelatinized corn starch, modified starch (corn), hypromellose, lactose, magnesium stearate, microcrystalline cellulose, polyethylene glycol, polysorbate 80, sodium starch glycolate, titanium dioxide and carnauba wax.
So you should be OK. Check with your doctor or a pharmacist if you are unsure.

there does not seem to be any cross reactivity with sulfa compounds in my review of the medication.

They have no relationship to each other.
