Cut back : May be they mean cut back and not cut in half!

Cut down on use.: I agree with Dr. Omrani. Please don't cut up the Fioricet with Codeine capsule. However, if you are using Fioricet with Codeine it should be used very judiciously as you could develop tolerance. It contains both a narcotic and a barbituate.
