User Medicine Opinions for fiorinal W/codeine #3

Overall: Low adverse Reactions Healing Power: No dependency problems: Cost-Benefit: Sex: F Age: 54 Location: Los Angeles Time Taken: usually one day days Reason: Debilitating tension headache Date: 12 July 2009 Side Effects Used properly..no adverse side effects..and NO nausea (the caffeine?) Additional Thoughts It's an older drug..but my gosh..it works..for severe headache that aspirin can't touch..(AND..I have bad reaction to anything with tylenol) Overall: Low adverse Reactions Healing Power: No dependency problems: Cost-Benefit: Sex: F Age: 55 Location: USA Time Taken: 39 years Reason: Migraines, neck pain, fibromyalgia Date: 30 June 2009 Side Effects Very few side affects. Stomach upset sometimes if I have not eaten. I have no drowsiness or addition problems with this drug. I have taken most everything in the past 40 years, this is the only one that I have had any luck with. Additional Thoughts I have found that the generic does not come close to relieving my pain at all. It was a pure waste of my money. It is well worth the cost to me to be able to function with my pain somewhat under control. Overall: Low adverse Reactions Healing Power: No dependency problems: Cost-Benefit: Sex: F Age: 33 Time Taken: 9 months Reason: severe migraines Date: 15 March 2007 Side Effects stomach ache, gurgling stomach, feelings of constipation (even w/ none) Additional Thoughts Excellent for migraines. Initially took Tylenol #3 and then dr prescribed fiorinal #3. The difference is amazing, I can finally function again. The only problems I have is that my headaches come on late in the evening and the caffeine makes it hard to sleep. I also feel that it wears off quickly and I'm so paranoid about abusing it that I don't like to take more than 1 per day. Overall: Low adverse Reactions Healing Power: No dependency problems: Cost-Benefit: Sex: M Age: 77 Time Taken: 46 years Reason: Migrains Date: 24 March 2007 Side Effects Constipation (light), memory lapses, vulnerability to rebound headache. Additional Thoughts Great, complete relief from pain. Taken no more than 2 or 3 times per week. Benefits subside if taken more often. Best medication I ever had for headaches. Overall: Low adverse Reactions Healing Power: No dependency problems: Cost-Benefit: Sex: F Age: 50 Time Taken: 20 years Reason: migraines, fibromyalgia syndrome Date: 31 March 2007 Side Effects Additional Thoughts This is a great medication for migraines. It helps me function with a migraine and also helps with the daily pain from fibromyalgia. I have tried many other pain meds for my chronic pain and this works very well with the least side effects. My doctors are reluctant to prescribe it for the chronic pain - I wish they would let me decide what works for me.
