I have taken fioricet (acetaminophen butalbital and caffeine) for 3 days in a row for migraine..6 being the most..is it likely i will have withdrawals..have heard so much about them. scary!.

Caffeine withdrawal: headaches and barbiturate withdrawal seizures are possible. Also 6 doses of acetaminophen (Tylenol) may cause liver problems. The main ingredient (butalbital) is for tension headache not migraine by the way.
