Fiorinal with Codeine III Reviews
For Headache "Works like nothing else I've tried. There is something about the combination of Fiorinal and Codeine III that neither has alone. For neck injury with chronic pain, this works for me much, much better than the heavily regulated medicines that are considered to be much stronger."
For Headache "Started getting terrible migraines after abdominal surgery. Had no idea exploding head pain could be so debilitating. Was on Midrin for awhile, asked doc for something a bit stronger: Fiorinal with codeine. Only thing that works. My love goes out to all of you with severe, endless migraines. They can drive you insane. Fiorinal with codeine is the best, works for many kinds of pain too."
For Headache "I have taken Fiorinal w/ codeine for over 20 years for debilitating chronic migraine. It works within 25-40 minutes alleviating pain, nausea, and sound and light sensitivity and rendering me completely functional. I experience no side effects. Note that I have tried 40 different prescribed preventative and abortive medications spanning 20+ drug classifications (including the newest cgrps); all were totally ineffective. I have no adverse effects from long term use of Fiorinal w codeine as indicated by thorough yearly physicals. Age group: 60 - 70 years old."
For Headache "Have taken Fiorinal with Codeine off and on for 25 years. After having tried over 70 medications, nerve blocks, botox injections and spent thousands of dollars on doctors and ER’s, it is the only medication that relieves my migraines and allows me to function."
"I have been using Fiorinal With Codeine for over 15 years as I get PMS headaches and occiptical neuralgia headaches which start in the back of my head. I have tried several antidepressants as well as Vicodin. Fiorinal 3 with codeine is the only headache medication that helps with my fibromyalgia, migraine headaches PMS Headaches as it contains aspirin instead of tylenol which works a lot better for the constriction that occurs with intense headaches . It also does not give me any bad side affects"
For Headache "I have had migraine headaches since I was 9 years old, and I started taking Fiorinal with Codeine when I was in my 40s, and it is the only thing that knocks my headache out."
For Headache "Beyond any questions this is the best Migraine/headache medication ever made, but I dread that this is on the hit list to get rid of by the government !"
For Headache "The very best migraine medicine ever made. It even keeps back pain from causing the migraine (upper back)."
For Headache "The best medication I have found for my chronic migraines. Nothing else I have tried even comes close to touching them, except this."
