Fioricet Precautions
Check with your doctor:
-
- If the medicine stops working as well as it did when you first started using it. This may mean that you are in danger of becoming dependent on the medicine. Do not try to get better pain relief by increasing the dose.
- If you are having headaches more often than you did before you started taking this medicine. This is especially important if a new headache occurs within 1 day after you took your last dose of this medicine, headaches begin to occur every day, or a headache continues for several days in a row. This may mean that you are dependent on the medicine. Continuing to take this medicine will cause even more headaches later on. Your doctor can give you advice on how to relieve the headaches.
Check the labels of all nonprescription (over-the-counter [OTC]) or prescription medicines you now take. If any contain a barbiturate or acetaminophen, check with your health care professional. Taking them together with this medicine may cause an overdose.
The max dosage of acetaminophen is 3000mg per day. Please calculate all the dosage of acetaminophen and never exceed 3000mg per day. Or it will hurt your kidney and heart.
The butalbital in this medicine will add to the effects of alcohol and other CNS depressants (medicines that slow down the nervous system, possibly causing drowsiness). Some examples of CNS depressants are antihistamines or medicine for hay fever, other allergies, or colds; sedatives, tranquilizers, or sleeping medicine; other prescription pain medicine; narcotics; other barbiturates; medicine for seizures; muscle relaxants; or anesthetics, including some dental anesthetics. Also, drinking large amounts of alcoholic beverages regularly while taking this medicine may increase the chance of liver damage, especially if you take more of this medicine than your doctor ordered or if you take it regularly for a long time. Therefore, do not drink alcoholic beverages, and check with your doctor before taking any of the medicines listed above, while you are using this medicine.
This medicine may cause some people to become drowsy, dizzy, or lightheaded. Make sure you know how you react to this medicine before you drive, use machines, or do anything else that could be dangerous if you are dizzy or are not alert and clearheaded.
Before you have any medical tests, tell the person in charge that you are taking this medicine. Caffeine (present in some butalbital and acetaminophen combinations) interferes with the results of certain tests that use dipyridamole (e.g., Persantine) to help show how well blood is flowing to your heart. Caffeine should not be taken for 8 to 12 hours before the test. The results of other tests may also be affected by butalbital and acetaminophen combinations.
Before having any kind of surgery (including dental surgery) or emergency treatment, tell the medical doctor or dentist in charge that you are taking this medicine. Serious side effects can occur if your medical doctor or dentist gives you certain medicines without knowing that you have taken butalbital.
If you have been taking large amounts of this medicine, or if you have been taking it regularly for several weeks or more, do not suddenly stop taking it without first checking with your doctor. Your doctor may want you to reduce gradually the amount you are taking before stopping completely in order to lessen the chance of withdrawal side effects.
If you think you or anyone else may have taken an overdose of this medicine, get emergency help at once. Taking an overdose of this medicine or taking alcohol or CNS depressants with this medicine may lead to unconsciousness or possibly death. Signs of butalbital overdose include severe drowsiness, confusion, severe weakness, shortness of breath or unusually slow or troubled breathing, slurred speech, staggering, and unusually slow heartbeat. Signs of severe acetaminophen poisoning may not occur until 2 to 4 days after the overdose is taken, but treatment to prevent liver damage or death must be started within 24 hours or less after the overdose is taken.
How to Use Fioricet ?
Take this medication by mouth with or without food as directed by your doctor, usually every 4 hours as needed.
If you are using the liquid form of this medication, carefully measure the dose using a special measuring device/spoon. Do not use a household spoon because you may not get the correct dose.
The dosage is based on your medical condition, age, and response to treatment. This medication works best if it is used as the first signs of a headache occur. If you wait until the headache has worsened, the medication may not work as well.
If you suddenly stop using this medication, you may have withdrawal symptoms (such as nausea/vomiting, mental/mood changes, seizures). To help prevent withdrawal, your doctor may lower your dose slowly. Withdrawal is more likely if you have used this medication for a long time or in high doses. Tell your doctor or pharmacist right away if you have withdrawal.
Though it helps many people, this medication may sometimes cause addiction. This risk may be higher if you have a substance use disorder (such as overuse of or addiction to drugs/alcohol). Take this medication exactly as prescribed to lower the risk of addiction. Ask your doctor or pharmacist for more details.
Tell your doctor if you notice increased use of this medication, a worsening of headaches, an increase in the number of headaches, the medication not working as well, or use of this medication for more than 2 headache episodes a week. Do not take more than recommended. Your doctor may need to change your medication and/or add a separate medication to prevent the headaches.
What Should you Know Before you Take Fioricet ?

This drug may make you dizzy or drowsy. Alcohol or marijuana (cannabis) can make you more dizzy or drowsy. Do not drive, use machinery, or do anything that needs alertness until you can do it safely. Avoid alcoholic beverages. Talk to your doctor if you are using marijuana (cannabis).
Liquid products may contain alcohol, sugar and/or aspartame. Caution is advised if you have diabetes, alcohol dependence, liver disease, phenylketonuria (PKU), or any other condition that requires you to limit/avoid these substances in your diet. Ask your doctor or pharmacist about using this product safely.
Before having surgery or certain medical procedures (such as a heart stress test or a procedure to restore a normal heart rhythm if you have an unusually fast heartbeat), tell your doctor or dentist that you use this medication and about all the products you use (including prescription drugs, nonprescription drugs, and herbal products).
Older adults may be more sensitive to the side effects of this drug, especially drowsiness and trouble falling asleep. These side effects can increase the risk of falling.
During pregnancy, this medication should be used only when clearly needed. Using it for long periods or in high doses near the expected delivery date is not recommended because of possible harm to the unborn baby. Discuss the risks and benefits with your doctor.

Drug Abuse And Dependence
Abuse And Dependee
Butalbital
Barbiturates may be habit-forming: Tolerance, psychological dependence, and physical dependence may occur especially following prolonged use of high doses of barbiturates. The average daily dose for the barbiturate addict is usually about 1500 mg.
As tolerance to barbiturates develops, the amount needed to maintain the same level of intoxication increases; tolerance to a fatal dosage, however, does not increase more than two-fold. As this occurs, the margin between an intoxication dosage and fatal dosage becomes smaller. The lethal dose of a barbiturate is far less if alcohol is also ingested. Major withdrawal symptoms (convulsions and delirium) may occur within 16 hours and last up to 5 days after abrupt cessation of these drugs.
Intensity of withdrawal symptoms gradually declines over a period of approximately 15 days. Treatment of barbiturate dependence consists of cautious and gradual withdrawal of the drug.
Barbiturate-dependent patients can be withdrawn by using a number of different withdrawal regimens. One method involves initiating treatment at the patient’s regular dosage level and gradually decreasing the daily dosage as tolerated by the patient.
Fioricet Overdose
If someone has overdosed and has serious symptoms such as passing out or trouble breathing, call 911. Otherwise, call a poison control center right away. US residents can call their local poison control center at 1-800-222-1222. Canada residents can call a provincial poison control center. Symptoms of overdose may include: severe drowsiness, slow/shallow breathing, severe dizziness, nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, sweating, stomach/abdominal pain, extreme tiredness, yellowing eyes/skin, dark urine.

Some side effects of acetaminophen / butalbital / caffeine may occur that usually do not need medical attention. These side effects may go away during treatment as your body adjusts to the medicine.

Check with your health care professional if any of the following side effects continue or are bothersome or if you have any questions about them:
Fioricet Overdose Treatment
In the event of an overdose on Fioricet, call 911 immediately. Emergency treatment is critical to ensure the person remains stable. After the immediate overdose risk is averted, subsequent care is essential to effectively address the drug abuse or addiction issue.
Fioricet rehab treatment normally begins with the detoxification phase. This process reduces the patient’s dosage of Fioricet until they are no longer taking the drug at all. The detoxification phase of the treatment eliminates the patient’s physical dependence on Fioricet. The remainder of a treatment program for Fioricet addiction deals primarily with the psychological aspect of the addiction.
A large component of substance use disorder treatment focuses on being completely honest with yourself, accepting reality, and exploring the feelings, thoughts, and beliefs that drove your substance use. A good treatment program helps you look at your situation realistically, adapt more functional and realistic beliefs, learn stress management and coping techniques, and help you develop positive relationships.
The range of beliefs, emotions, and specific types of interventions that are addressed in treatment depends on your specific case, while still following general principles of treatment. If you have any co-occurring psychological or psychiatric disorders (e.g., depression, anxiety) or medical conditions (e.g., diabetes, high blood pressure, arthritis), then your treatment program should also help you address these issues either directly or with referrals to appropriate treatment professionals.

How Common Is Fioricet Abuse and Addiction?
According to the 2018 National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH), an estimated 6.4 million people ages 12 or older misused prescription tranquilizers, including barbiturates like Fioricet, in the past year. That’s equivalent to 2.4 percent of the population.3
Although the risks of becoming addicted to Fioricet are low, especially if you take the medication exactly as prescribed, it can still happen. The risks of addiction rise significantly when a person becomes physically dependent on Fioricet and develops a tolerance. At this point, he or she will need more of the drug to get relief from headaches. However, continually taking larger or more frequent doses of Fioricet can cause addiction.
Consuming large amounts of Fioricet can also produce a high that feels similar to being drunk, which may serve as motivation to misuse it. Some people use Fioricet recreationally by taking large doses of it to get high or by using it with opioids or prescription painkillers to enhance its effects.
Misusing Fioricet to get high or using it in any way other than how it was prescribed can have serious consequences like tolerance, dependence, addiction, and withdrawal. Once you are addicted, it can be very difficult to stop using it.
What Are Common Signs and Symptoms of Fioricet Addiction?
If a person is addicted to Fioricet, some of the most common signs are:
-
-
- Going to multiple doctors to get Fioricet prescriptions
- Taking more doses of Fioricet to treat headaches
- Experiencing withdrawal symptoms after taking a lower dose or missing one
- Feeling unable to function normally without Fioricet
- Being obsessed with getting more Fioricet and taking it
-
Treatment for Fioricet Addiction
Butalbital-containing medications can be habit-forming and may lead to addiction and other problems. It’s important that you understand the risks of taking Fioricet and Fiorinal.
Tell your healthcare provider what medications you already take before you start a butalbital combination drug. Let them know if you:
- Are allergic to any ingredients in the medication, such as acetaminophen or aspirin
- Are currently taking blood thinners, antidepressants, antihistamines, or other sedatives such as sleeping pills or tranquilizers
- Have or previously had depression, liver disease, or porphyria, a rare metabolic condition
- Are pregnant, plan to become pregnant, or are currently breastfeeding
Fioricet addiction is a medical disorder that requires ongoing treatment to overcome. Although a Fioricet detox program can help you get sober, staying that way will require further treatment.
Research has shown that long-term rehab that lasts at least 90 days provides the best opportunity for lasting, genuine life change and recovery. While many 30-day rehab programs promise success in sobriety, staying in treatment longer greatly reduces your risk of relapse.7
During drug rehab, you’ll learn how to overcome your Fioricet addiction for good by:
-
-
- Attending educational lectures about addiction and recovery
- Engaging in a recovery program such as the 12-Step Program
- Learning how to recognize and respond to triggers, cravings, and high-risk situations
- Gaining important life skills that will aid your recovery
- Taking the time to heal physically and emotionally from the effects of substance abuse
-
Clients in drug rehab often work with addiction recovery professionals to achieve the objectives listed above with an evidence-based treatment program that addresses co-occurring disorders for well-rounded care. This often consists of different types of behavioral therapy, individual counseling, group counseling, family therapy, and peer support.
Intoxication
Because butalbital slows the central nervous system, you should not drive or operate heavy machinery while taking it. Watch for symptoms that include:
- Lack of coordination
- Problems with thinking and memory
- Slowness of speech
- Loss of inhibitions, meaning you may engage in risky behaviors
- Emotional disturbances
Medication Overuse Headache
A medication-overuse headache (MOH), once known as a drug-induced headache or medication-misuse headache, is a chronic headache that develops as a result of prolonged and frequent use of certain medications for acute headaches.
These headaches are a common side effect of butalbital, as well as a number of classes of medications used to treat headaches.
An MOH is diagnosed when a person has a headache or more times a month and, in the case of combination pain relievers like Fioricet and Fiorinal, has been taking the drug for 10 days a month for more than three months.
Often, people with an MOH do not get pain relief from preventive headache medications. This lack of response is often a clue to healthcare providers that an MOH has developed.
Research suggests that butalbital combination drugs may lead to MOH headaches in just one year if they are taken only five or more times per month.
