Overview

butalbital + acetaminophen + caffeine is a fixed-dose combination product manufactured by KVK-Tech, indicated for the treatment of tension (muscle contraction) headaches. The combination consists of butalbital, a barbiturate that provides sedative and muscle-relaxant effects; acetaminophen, a non-opioid analgesic and antipyretic; and caffeine, a central nervous system stimulant that enhances the analgesic efficacy of the other components. This product is a generic version of the brand-name drug Fioricet. Due to the presence of butalbital, the medication carries a risk of habit-forming potential and abuse.
