Both Fioricet and Vicodin are prescription medicines and can sometimes be used for Migraine attacks. Both medicines can also cause medication overuse headache if not used sparingly. Triptans are now the firstline drugs for Migraines. Whether fioricet or vicodin is better for your Migraine is dependent upon the patient. Only a doctor can diagnose or initiate treatment of Migraine Headaches with prescription medications.

∙ 12y agoI take Norco (10/325) for motility issues related to diverticula disease and rectal spasms. I'm experiencing headaches and the Norco does nothing to alleviate them. Doctor prescribed Fioricet. Since it's the same doc, I don't see a problem, but wonder about side effects of missing the two drugs?

∙ 12y agoYes. I am prescribed both together. The only thing you have to monitor is your apap consumption because they both contain apap aka Tylenol.

Can you take a Vicodin while on Suboxone for a major migraine?
As long as you're not taking massive amounts of the Suboxone (like, more than two 8-mg pills) yes, the Vicodin will still work as a pain killer, even though you won't get high from it. You will probably have to take a double dose of it, though, or even a triple dose, depending on how much Suboxone you are taking. I am on Suboxone and last autumn I had a root canal, and the oral surgeon prescribed Vicodin for me, but I had to take double doses of it to get enough relief from the pain. I also had to cut my Suboxone dose in half (I was taking 8-mgs per day and cut it down to 4). Whatever you do, don't stop taking the Suboxone completely, because if you completely stop taking it you will have to wait until you're in extreme withdrawal from the Vicodin before you start taking Suboxone again. If you stop taking the Suboxone, and then start taking it again before you're in heavy withdrawal from the Vicodin, you will experience the worst, most horrible withdrawal symptoms you can imagine. You will get really, really sick.

Can you take one methadone pill and one vicodin together?
If you want to, yes. But the methadone is a much more potent opiate than Vicodin. If you are taking an adequate dose of methadone, then it is likely that all your opiate receptors in your brain are full. That is, in fact, the point of taking methadone. If they are, then you probably won't "feel" anything from the Vicodin. If you are not taking an adequate dose of methadone, then the Vicodin will help with pain/opiate withdrawls/whatever you are taking it for. It is important to add that if you take the Vicodin with methadone, or any long acting/extended release opiate, that you are still increasing your chances of respiratory depression(the #1 risk of taking too many pain-killers or benzodiazopenes) EVEN IF you do not "feel" the effects from the Vicodin.
