I have bilateral neuropathy. I have several other conditions, one of which I take gabapentin for. My neurologist recently prescribed tramadol to compliment the gabapentin for dealing with the nerve pain. Despite the fact that I found the tramadol to be effective in reducing the progressive nerve pain, I had to stop due to an adverse reaction. Today my neurologist called in a Rx for fioricet to try instead. I do not suffer from migraines. I cannot find any info online about taking fioricet for neuropathy. Any thoughts on why/how thiscdrug would be effective for dealing with nerve pain in my legs?? Thank you in advance for your time and expertise,Chronic nerve pain sufferer
Hello, Thanks for the query. Floricet is a combination of codeine with acetaminophen and caffeine. It is a good analgesic, but gabapentin is the better choice for neuropathic pain. There is nothing wrong in supplementing florist with gabapentin for pain relief. Wishing you good health. Thanks
