I was on Hydrocone for my migraine/tension headaches for 3 years my dr decided to stop prescribing pain meds to her patients. Now I'm at a loss NJ Is really cracking down. My new GP referred me to a neorologist and I was thinking about asking him about Fiorcet not Hydrocone but how do I ask without sounding like a addict?

Hello, Lola! How are you?

Fioricet contains a barbiturate, not a narcotic. It contains Butalbital, Acetaminophen and Caffeine.

The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, insomnia and nervousness.

There should be no reason to worry about sounding like an addict. Just be honest about how bad they are and don't try to demand that he prescribed something.

Is there anything else I can help with?
