Global Patient Feedback for Fioricet (Butalbital, Acetaminophen & Caffeine)

Please see our forum guidelines.


I have been on esgic plus for many years. I was unaware that it could harm my liver, until a blood test showed liver problems. I was off them for quite a while, but continue to take them reasonability. I never take more then one a day if that. Synthroid I take also. But by prescription doses only.

I have been on Esgic-Plus and Synthroid for several years. My thyroid is now normal, and I take Esgic-Plus almost on a daily basis. I have no side affects from either perscription. I need to know if it can harm me in the future.
