Tapering Fioricet (acetaminophen butalbital and caffeine): Are you taking other medications? Fioricet (acetaminophen butalbital and caffeine) contains a combination of acetaminophen, butalbital, and caffeine. Butalbital may be habit-forming. You should ease up the medication under medical supervision. Dependence/tolerance is a reality, which can manifest as a serious condition, and take you to the ER. See your Dr. explain what you want to do, and start reducing the dosage, have a replacement
