About
Fioricet is a prescription medication used to treat tension headaches. It contains three active ingredients: acetaminophen (a pain reliever and fever reducer), butalbital (a barbiturate that relaxes muscle contractions), and caffeine (which helps enhance the effects of acetaminophen). It is typically prescribed for short-term use and should be taken under a doctor's supervision.
