疗效迹象:

Butalbital, acetaminophen and caffeine tablets are indicated for the relief of the symptom complex of tension (or muscle contraction) headache. Evidence supporting the efficacy and safety of this combination product in the treatment of multiple recurrent headaches is unavailable. Caution in this regard is required because butalbital is habit-forming and potentially abusable. This product is contraindicated under the following conditions: - Hypersensitivity or intolerance to any component of this product - Patients with porphyria. Tolerance, psychological dependence, and physical dependence may occur especially following prolonged use of high doses of barbiturates. The average daily dose for the barbiturate addict is usually about 1500 mg. As tolerance to barbiturates develops, the amount needed to maintain the same level of intoxication increases; tolerance to a fatal dosage, however, does not increase more than two-fold. As this occurs, the margin between an intoxication dosage and fatal dosage becomes small

headache.
It consists of a fixed combination of butalbital, acetaminophen and
caffeine. The role
each component plays in the relief of the complex of symptoms known as
tension
headache is incompletely understood.

Butalbital
Butalbital is well absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and is
expected to distribute to
most tissues in the body. Barbiturates in general may appear in breast

cross the placental barrier. They are bound to plasma and tissue
proteins to a varying
degree and binding increases directly as a function of lipid
solubility.
