I've been dealing with chronic tension headaches for years, and my doctor recently prescribed me the new Fioricet/Cod 50-300-40-30mg CP. This medication is a combination of butalbital, acetaminophen, caffeine, and codeine. I'm curious to hear from others who have tried it. How effective has it been for you? Have you experienced any of the side effects listed, such as dizziness, stomach pain, or more serious issues like liver or kidney problems? I'm particularly interested in hearing about any long-term effects or interactions with other medications. Also, how does this compare to other treatments you've tried? I've tried a few other medications and therapies, but the results have been mixed. Any insights or advice would be greatly appreciated!

I had a really bad reaction to the butalbital. It made me feel super jittery and anxious. I ended up switching to a different medication

The potential for liver problems is really concerning to me. I've been monitoring my urine color and energy levels carefully.

I've been on this for a few weeks now, and it's been a game-changer. The combination of drugs really helps with the tension and pain. I did have some initial dizziness, but it went away after a few days. Just be careful with the codeine part—it can be habit-forming.

I switched to Fioricet/Cod after trying other headache meds, and it's been a godsend. The only downside is the frequent trips to the bathroom due to constipation. Doctors need to be clear about these side effects.
