Fiorinal
Question: My husband brought back some fiorinal for me from Mexico but they don’t look like what I get from the drug store. On the bottle it says butabital 50 mg, acetaminophen 325 mg, and caffeine 40 mg tablets. They are a round scored tablet , with OHM across the top and 011 across the bottom. They were made by Halsey Drug Co. Inc. and distributed by Moore Drug Exchange. Are they safe to take?
Answer: Fiorinal is a brand name of Sandoz. The formulation of Fiorinal is butabital 50 mg, caffeine 40 mg, and aspirin 325 mg. Your pills are a generic form of “Fiorinal”.
