Fioricet and benadryl

Common Questions and Answers about Fioricet and benadryl

oxycontin

Avatar f tn Yes my doctor prescribed fioricet AND benadryl for migraines during pregnancy. But the benadryl was more for the nausea part of the headache. It is safe. They wouldn't prescribe it if the risks outweigh the benefits.
590653 tn?1218811706 t even remember and then switched to fioricet b/c a neighbor had some and would sell them to ppl. then i discovered ordering off the internet. in rehab i shocked the britches off the girls b/c they'd never heard of buying that way. and for me, i learned more about drugs than i ever thought possible and i try to purge the info daily. when i was in there, they gave me a list of medications to stay away from and some of them were over the counter cold medicines.
5787844 tn?1376078984 I get them bad since I've been in my second trimester and I keep a bottle of benadryl and Tylenol on my night stand.
Avatar f tn I'm realizing after finishing a benzo detox a week ago, I might also be facing a barbituate detox from the phenobarbital and the fioricet. Im already prone to seizures. I'm having trouble knowing if I just feel uncomfortable or if I'm in actual danger. I'm so terrified. When I left detox they told me itsunlikely I'd seize but they didn't say impossible.
Avatar f tn Water Tylenol and some caffeine really helped me. I also worked on finding my triggers, one was a coworkers perfume , I brought fresh lemons slices and sniffed them regularly and it really helped!
Avatar f tn I started going through what I believe are withdrawl symptoms because of my alchohol and fioricet use (abuse). I drink 2-3 glasses of white wine every night and end up taking one fioricet in the morning to combat my headache and sluggishness from the wine the night before. Sometimes, I might take another fioricet if my headache returns in the afternoon, but that is no more than maybe once a week. I took my fioricet as ususal yesterday am and again in the afternoon.
1389553 tn?1280782127 They gave me medications to help me relieve the pressure -Fioricet and Compazine and Benadryl. It is so ridiculous, I am constant paying these bills every month I get these terrible terrible migraines. Could anyone give me an idea what can I do and stop the suffering?
1690584 tn?1340297472 Also Fioricet has both a barbiturate and caffeine. Caffeine should be limited to 200 mg or less per day while pregnant and one Fioricet has 40mg. Definitely do some research before taking Fioricet while pregnant. I've been taking Tylenol for my migraines while pregnant which doesn't entirely get rid of them but at least keeps them at bay. I have also found that warm showers and a heating pad on my neck helps some. Best wishes for you...hopefully your migraines will ease up!
Avatar f tn m vomiting, suffering from extreme anxiety and shaking so badly I can barely function. I have a box of suboxone left and was wondering if they might help me get thru the withdrawal of the Fioricet. Anyone have any experience with this? Thanks!!!
9309926 tn?1405447056 I slept on am ice pack last night my migraine was that bad. Fell asleep in one woke up at five in tears and husband grabbed me another once he got home.
Avatar f tn I am taking 2-Fioricet (butalbital, actaminophen, and caffeine- 50/325/40 )daily for tension headaches for 3 years and 1mg clonazepam at bedtime for 15 years for restless leg syndrome. I ran out of the clonazepam prescription-- last day was Saturday. Monday night was sleepless, and by Tues. late afternoon, became nauseated, dry heaving, shaking, chills--no fever. I thought I had the flu.
Avatar m tn what meds have you tried besides just the fioricet and how have they worked? actually...was the fioricet actually working for you?
Avatar f tn Well not my migraines have gotten so bad that I had to go to labor and delivery and I told the doc that I did not want to be put on any narcotics because of fear of the withdrawls and my baby. So they put me on Fioricet. Well I just looked it up and well I guess I can become depended on it as well! I guess my question is. If anyone out there knows if this can effect my baby and if my baby will have withdrawls from it as well.
Avatar m tn OMG ... I JUST found this post of yours after you responded to MY POST: "NEED HELP STOPPING FIORICET W/ CODEINE" last week ... and didn't realize til finding and reading THIS how much you DO know and DO understand what I'm going thru!!! Fioricet & Fiorinal both with AND without Codeine have been my drug of choice on and off for over 20 YEARS!
Avatar n tn What I can tell you though is that Propanolol is a Beta Blocker used for the preventative treatment of migraine headaches and that Fioricet is a butalbital that is sometimes used for the acute treatment of migraine headache.
Avatar f tn I was using about 4 pills (200mg) daily or at least every other day and also drinking alcohol on top of that : <!!! I decided to quit taking them (well actually I ran out and am too ashamed to have them refilled) last Thursday (this is day 4). I have had a terrible time sleeping, very restless. Also, TERRIBLE bodyaches, cramps, flu like symptoms (I actually thought I had the flu at first), today the diarrhea has started. My main questions are 1. How long will this last? 2.
Avatar f tn Hello everyone, I am new here, but i am looking for some help. I have been taking fioricet for many years and I have not used any fioricet since Tuesday night, (today is Saturday). I don't know if I went through any withdrawals, but I know that I was an utter mess... My hormones are all out of whack and I have been an emotional wreck anyway... So here's my question.
Avatar n tn t become addicted to fioricet and my family doc. was the one who said stop taking the fioricet and everything and just deal with your headaches. So, I unfortunately have to do this at home myself. Please help me figure our a plan that is safe and workable.
Avatar n tn I have a mild tolerance to hydrocodone because of the chronic pain I have due to my hernia. I have no insurance so I cant get the surgery yet, however my script for lortab is only $4. I am also prescribed Fioricet w/coedine for tension headaches. When I am out of lortab, I take the fioricet w/coedine for both headaches and hernia pain. I am 26, weigh 185lbs, and am 6'2. I take an average of 7-9 lortab a day and 6-7 fioricet a day (maybe only one over recomended doese, based on pain levels).
Avatar f tn I have taken fioricet for more than 30 years. I developed migraines at age 8 and was thrilled to find something that took away the pain. For at least five years now my doctors have been chastising me and telling me to stop taking fioricet. Even my insurance company has sent me warnings about fioricet. Since I can't get anyone to prescribe it for me I have been ordering it online for over two years and have maxed out credit cards and spent huge amounts of money.
Avatar f tn Im not a doctor but ive been on both hydrocodone and butalbital (generic vicodin and fioricet) for about 2 years now without any interacting symptoms. Oftentimes if you think you might be experiencing problems your body will release epinephrine (adrenaline) which could be causing your symptoms. Try to do everything to relax the next time it occurs.
Avatar f tn I've been taking Fioricet with Codeine for 5 years now for my migraines and I can't even imagine my life without it. I'm only 18, started when I was 13, and I've tried so many different medications for migraine prevention and zapping the migraines when I get them. Nothing else has come close to doing what the Fioricet with Codeine does.
Avatar f tn I am a mom of 3 and have been on Fioricet and norco for 4 years. I am so afraid I am not going to live to see my babies grow. I have tried to stop so many times. Every day I say Today will be better. Does anyone have any experience with Fioricet?
Avatar f tn m not sure if my body had simply grown tolerant being on the same dose dly for 5-6 yrs or if it was because of the increased demands my body had to go through this past year, but I made the difficult decision to increase my oxycontin to 50mg three times dly. I have also been on fioricet and imitrex PRN for my many headaches and migraines. I suspect that my headaches have increased in frequency and intensity to the point that I have them daily because of all the meds I take.
Avatar m tn I understand the Fioricet is causing my daily migraines and I need to taper off. I get Botox for migraines (4 rounds so far) which should be working and probably truly is but because I take so much Fioricet, I get awful migraines every single day. I wanted to start a taper plan this week but the migraines are so bad I wasn't able to stick with just 4 per day (then taper from there). Any advice/help would be appreciated. What do/did you use in between the Fioricet?
1193434 tn?1267628242 I just cut to 1/2 Fioricet am and 1/2 Fioricet pm. I am getting by today. Stomache bothering me so I am just staying on the couch. I have to work tomorrow so I hope I feel even a little better tomorrow. I have had to use valium for the w/d if they are bad. I have to go to work or I will loose my job. I will cut back on the valium after. Iam only taking the valium if it's really bad. Yesterday was bad. Today is a little better. I was trying to do 1 fioricet in the am and none in the pm.
Avatar f tn My neurologist prescribed Fioricet for migraines and I have taken occasionally over the last 7 years. My dosage is very low as I only can take 2 in a 24 hour period. After the second aneurysm 6 months ago, I have been taking Fioricet daily with no relief. Went to another neurologist who gave me a nerve block. Bad mistake. I have never been so sick. He also told me I was having rebound headaches from the Fioricet. I decided to stop taking it.
