Fiorinal Generics Don't Work

Updated

Generic capsules don't work as well as the brand name "Fiorinal," but it's very expensive (about $3 per capsule). I actually have found the generics to worsen my headache!! You may want to try Creighton generic--I think it is manufactured at the same plant that makes the brand name Fiorinal. Taking a larger dose is NOT effective and can cause severe stomach problems because of the aspirin, and may lead to ulcers. The best (and only effective one I found) generic tablet was by Westward, which doesn't manufacture it anymore--I have been writing to try to get them to change their business policy on this. Maybe if a lot of us write to them they may change their mind????
