Fioricet w/ Codeine would be a good drug to help with your migraines. Its a barbiturate combined with caffeine, acetaminophen and with well, codeine.

A little update for those interested
I talked to my doctor and my MRI showed a small spot on my cerebellum, but its not exerting any pressure or mass effect so the radiologist says its within normal limits and nothing to worry about. my doctor and the radiologist both agreed its unrelated to my migraines. they suggest booking another MRI with contrast in 6 months to make sure its nothing.
I got scripts for:
codeine 30mgs x60
fiorinal #3- aspirin, caffeine 40mg, butalbital 50mgs, codeine 30mgs x30
diazepam 5mgs x30
hydroxyzine 10mgs x30
I haven't tried the fiorinal yet but I hope its alright.
I took a Valium for a test drive and 5mg seems kinda low but it was still relaxing. I dot intend to take the diazepam regularly, just wanted it in case.
Are the risks of aspirin the same as APAP? I understand aspirin can be hard on your stomach?
Floricet w/Codeine, i can see that being effective with the exception of the caffeine. i know its supposed to help the acetaminophen but caffeine also antagonizes the effects of the barbiturate.
i think they should leave out the caffeine.
better yet, they sould leave out the caffeine and acetaminophen, switch the codeine for oxycodone, and switch the butalbital for secobarbital. and then make it OTC.:D
The caffeine is in there because it helps with headaches. It makes it more effective medication for headaches. Not in there to prevent abuse.

I used to get cluster headaches when i was really young ( like 6-10 years old ) and nothing the docters ever gave me helped them, I used to have to get catscans done all the time and they could never figure it out.. Thank god they went away as I got older.
But from what I've read the only real relief medicine for them is Lsd or Psylocibin.
Opiates will only make it worse too..![]()
Not what you want to hear I'm sure, but opiates are rarely given for headaches.
