Since a Fioricet dosage contains acetaminophen, you should be cautious as mentioned above, and make sure that you’re not combining multiple medicines with acetaminophen. Some of the signs of liver damage include nausea or vomiting, yellowing of the skin or eyes and dark-colored urine. Extreme stomach or abdominal pain can also be a sign of liver damage, as can extreme fatigue.
Older adults may have different Fioricet dosage instructions, and doctors will usually start older patients out at the lowest possible Fioricet dosage. This is because they are at a higher risk of heart, kidney and liver conditions, and their kidney functionality may be reduced so it could be easier for the drug to build up in their system and cause damage or contribute to an overdose.
People should never try to achieve a Fioricet high or take this drug in any way other than how their doctor prescribes it to them because of the risks this can bring.
Also important when looking at the Fioricet dosage information are the potential interactions.
Fioricet may interact with MAOIs, antidepressants, some tranquilizers and sedative-hypnotics, so speak with your doctor if you take any of these. You should also tell your doctor about any over-the-counter drugs you take, or herbal remedies and nutritional supplements.
