What is Fioricet?

FIORICET GENERIC NAME(S): BUTALBITAL-ACETAMINOPHEN-CAFF

Fioricet Generic is a mixture of acetaminophen and butalbital. Acetaminophen can be used to reduce fever and pain. Butalbital belongs to a class of drugs known as barbiturates.

 It reduces tension headache muscle contractions. Caffeine acts as a stimulant for the central nervous system. Caffeine relaxes blood vessel contractions to improve blood flow.

Fioricet can be used to treat tension headaches caused by muscle contractions.
