Severe or chronic tension headaches can take over your work and family life!
A study by the American Headache Society shows that 70% of chronic headache sufferers have significant problems with daily functioning because of the headaches.
Migraine sufferers have symptoms in addition to headache; they may spend days each month in a darkened room because the pain and light-sensitivity are unbearable otherwise.
Medical researchers do not have any particularly cure or cause for Migraine until today. However, a number of remedies have been discovered to ease the pain and stop patient’s dilemma of having to drop their works when the pain attacks.
Fioricet is one of the drugs that researchers have developed to manage headaches. It is available online through drugstoretm.com and has been found to be effective for tension headaches. While studies haven't shown it to be effective for Migraine sufferers overall, some people with Migraines seem to find it helpful as well.
Fioricet gets its effect from three different ingredients that attack different "parts" of your headache, just like a good laundry detergent has different ingredients to tackle grease, odors, and dirt.
Fioricet has three parts, namely butalbital, acetaminophen and caffeine.
Butalbital is a barbiturate and like other barbiturates, it has a relaxing effect. Acetominophen is a drug that may be recognized as the active ingredient in Tylenol. It can help with pain relief especially when combined with a relaxant.
Caffeine gives you the "buzz" that you may feel after drinking tea, coffee, or colas, or eating chocolate. Caffeine helps to reduce blood flow to the brain.
For frequent headache sufferers, anything that might help them get back on their feet sounds like a heaven-sent. But there a couple of considerations before one can take in any drug.
Warning is always issued to everyone intending to take in any medication – consult your doctor first!
