Fiorinal vs Vicodin
 | Fiorinal |  | Vicodin |  |
| This combination medication is used to treat tension headaches. Aspirin helps to decrease the pain from the headache. Caffeine helps increase the effects of aspirin. Butalbital is a sedative that helps to decrease anxiety and cause sleepiness and relaxation. | Vicodin is used to relieve moderate to severe pain. It contains a narcotic pain reliever (hydrocodone) and a non-narcotic pain reliever (acetaminophen). Hydrocodone works in the brain to change how your body feels and responds to pain. Acetaminophen can also reduce a fever. | |||

| Add Fiorinal review I've had debilitating migraines since my hysterectomy. Feel it's hormone-related, but nothing relieved the pain and vomiting, until I started this medication. I used to take pain meds and then throw up, for 3 days. Now, I can function, rarely do I need to go to the ER for pain shots, it used to be a regular thing eventually. This medication has worked for me for the last 30 years of my life, as I suffer from migraine headackes. No need to try any other meds, this to me is a life savior against pain.Why has CANADA TAKEN THIS MEDICATION OFF THE MARKET...As a concern patient ...what do I take NOW!! SUFFER-NEVER. | Add Vicodin review somerelief Good drug - especially for my sinus infections.
