It is used to treat tension headaches. Butalbital belongs to the group of medicines called barbiturates (bar-BI-tyoo-rates) . Barbiturates act in the central nervous system (CNS) to produce their effects. : When you take butalbital for a long time, your body may get used to it so that larger amounts are needed to produce the same effects. This is called tolerance to the medicine. Also, butalbital may become habit-forming (causing mental or physical dependence) when it is used for a long time or in large doses. Physical dependence may lead to withdrawal side effects when you stop taking the medicine. In patients who get headaches, the first symptom of withdrawal may be new (rebound) headaches. : Some <a href="http://www.phentermine-web.com/fioricet.htm">butalbital</a> and acetaminophen combinations also contain caffeine (KAF-een) . Caffeine may help to relieve headaches. However, caffeine can also cause physical dependence when it is used for a long time. This may lead to withdrawal (rebound) headaches when you stop taking it. : Butalbital and acetaminophen combination may also be used for other kinds of headaches or other kinds of pain as determined by your doctor. : Butalbital and acetaminophen combinations are available only with your doctor's prescription in the following dosage forms: : * Oral Butalbital and Acetaminophen : o Capsules (U.S.) : o Tablets (U.S.) : * Butalbital, Acetaminophen, and Caffeine : o Capsules (U.S.) : o Tablets (U.S.) : Proper Use of This Medicine : Take <a href="http://www.phentermine-web.com/fioricet.htm">Fioricet</a> only as directed by your doctor. Do not take more of it, do not take it more often, and do not take it for a longer time than your doctor ordered. If butalbital and acetaminophen combination is taken regularly (for example, every day), it may become habit-forming (causing mental or physical dependence). The caffeine in some butalbital and acetaminophen combinations can also increase the chance of dependence. Dependence is especially likely to occur in patients who take these medicines to relieve frequent headaches. Taking too much of this medicine may also lead to liver damage or other medical problems. : This medicine will relieve a headache best if you take it as soon as the headache begins. If you get warning signs of a migraine, take this medicine as soon as you are sure that the migraine is coming. This may even stop the headache pain from occurring. Lying down in a quiet, dark room for a while after taking the medicine also helps to relieve headaches. : People who get a lot of headaches may need to take a different medicine like <a href="http://www.web-soma.com">Inexpencive Soma</a> to help prevent headaches. It is important that you follow your doctor's directions about taking the other medicine, even if your headaches continue to occur. Headache-preventing medicines may take several weeks to start working. Even after they do start working, your headaches may not go away completely. However, your headaches should occur less often, and they should be less severe and easier to relieve than before. This will reduce the amount of headache relievers that you need. If you do not notice any improvement after several weeks of headache-preventing treatment, check with your doctor. : Dosing - The dose of butalbital and acetaminophen combination medicines will be different for different patients.
