| Uses |
| | |
| | Fioricet is prescribed for
the relief of tension headache symptoms caused by muscle contractions in the head,
neck, and shoulder area. | | | |
| Directions |
| | |
| | To prevent upset stomach,
take Fioricet with food or milk. Pain medications work best if they are used as
the first signs of pain (or first signs of migraine) occur. If you wait until
the pain has significantly worsened, the pain medicine may not work as well. Take
this as prescribed. Do not increase your dose or take it more frequently without
your doctor's approval. | | | |

few days as your body adjusts to the medication. If these symptoms persist or
become bothersome, inform your doctor. Notify your doctor immediately if you develop:
a rapid/ irregular heartbeat. An allergic reaction to this drug is unlikely, but
seek immediate medical attention if it occurs. Symptoms of an allergic reaction
