fiorinal with codeine capsules

For many years, Fiorinal with Codeine "Brand" capsules knocked out your headache with no side affects and allowed you to be productive.

i can t find the generic form of fiorinal in tablet from are they still making them

I'm sorry about the problem that you're having! And no, the tablets are no longer available, just the capsules.

Tell Actavis to start making them again!!!!
