pregabalin and tension headaches

Only take it when you absolutely need it and do read the drug info that came with this RX, as Openmind suggested. Fioricet can and does cause rebound headaches and shouldn't be abruptly stopped. I don't think stopping after one week would be problematic but taper off to be safe. Good luck!

I just was reading up on excedrin and pregnancy and the tension headache formula has no aspirin. That would probably be the safest. If your Dr said it was ok then I would take it, however if you don't feel comfortable then don't do it, and talk to him/her about it at your next visit.
