A member asked:

Does fiorinal with codeine (aspirin butalbital caffeine and codeine) make you high?

Taking for pain?: All pain medications can make some people feel "high". If you taking this for pain then it is less likely. If you are taking it to get high, then you are risking your life.

Fiorinal w Codeine: Per FDA, Fiorinal must have at least 188mg aspirin per 15mg butalbital (188:15) to meet CSA exemption. The ratio is believed to be enough nonnarcotic to reduce the abuse potential of butalbital. Codeine has been used recreationally, but doesn't usually cause a "high".
