Fioricet (Butalbital / Acetaminophen / Caffeine) - Indications and Dosage

INDICATIONS AND USAGE

Fioricet is indicated for the relief of the symptom complex of tension (or muscle contraction) headache.

Evidence supporting the efficacy and safety of Fioricet in the treatment of multiple recurrent headaches is unavailable. Caution in this regard is required because butalbital is habit-forming and potentially abusable.

DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION

One or 2 tablets every 4 hours as needed. Total daily dosage should not exceed 6 tablets.

Extended and repeated use of Fioricet is not recommended because of the potential for physical dependence.
