headache
"I have used Fiorinal for over 30 years and like others try to use it sparingly.  My goal is to only use it no more than 10 pills per month - usually less.  It is the only thing that works for my headaches.  I have tried all other over the counter medicine and they do nothing.  I find that if I catch the headache early one pill will do the trick.  However, if I wait too long it may not work.  I have Fioricet for bad headaches but I don't like the side effects of the codeine.  I rarely ever use it.  The only bad thing with Fiorinal is that I can't take it at night because the caffeine will keep me awake.  My pharmacist says that they may discontinue the drug in a few years - I hope not as I need it."
