I've been taking 15 fioricet (acetaminophen butalbital and caffeine) a day for almost a year my doc has me tapering 1pill every other day. i'm worried if that's too fast & i will have w/d?

Mild yes.: 10-20% per week is recommended and when at 20 % of original dose 10% per week. you will feel something like withdrawl but should be OK. keep in touch with your doctor and stay away from these meds in the future if possible.
