I started taking Fioricet/Codeine when I was in my mid 20's for severe headaches/head pain (migraines?). After suffering for years, the drug was a God-send for me and my family!

This medication has been a miracle for me. There has only been a couple migraines that couldnt be taken care of with this drug. It just makes me EXTREMELY tired. I have tried every migraine medication out there and this is the only thing that works for me!

After suffering a traumatic brain injury in a car accident, this is the only medication that has given me some relief. It does not take the pain away, however, it does reduce the pain to a tolerable level.
