Clinical Information

Chemical Structure

No Image found
Clinical Pharmacology

Butalbital, a barbiturate, is a GABA receptor agonist and may inhibit excitatory AMPA receptors.

Aspirin is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug and a non-selective irreversible inhibitor of cyclooxygenases.

Caffeine is a methylxanthine and CNS stimulant. The exact mechanism with respect to the indication is not clear; however, the effects of caffeine may be due to antagonism of adenosine receptors.

Codeine is an opioid agonist relatively selective for the mu-opioid receptor, but with a much weaker affinity than morphine. The analgesic properties of codeine have been speculated to come from its conversion to morphine, although the exact mechanism of analgesic action remains unknown.

Non-Clinical Toxicology
Butalbital, aspirin, caffeine, and codeine phosphate capsules is contraindicated for:

Butalbital, aspirin, caffeine, and codeine phosphate capsules is also contraindicated in patients with:

Because of its antianabolic activity, concurrent administration of tetracycline may reduce the potential anabolic effects of amino acids infused with dextrose as part of a parenteral feeding regimen.

Additives may be incompatible. Consult with pharmacist if available. When introducing additives, use aseptic technique, mix thoroughly and do not store.

Butalbital, aspirin, caffeine, and codeine phosphate capsules contains codeine. Codeine in combination with butalbital, aspirin, and caffeine is a Schedule III controlled substance. As butalbital, aspirin, caffeine, and codeine phosphate capsules contains butalbital and codeine, it exposes users to the risks of addiction, abuse, and misuse

Although the risk of addiction in any individual is unknown, it can occur in patients appropriately prescribed butalbital, aspirin, caffeine, and codeine phosphate capsules. Addiction can occur at recommended dosages and if the drug is misused or abused.

Assess each patient's risk for addiction, abuse, or misuse prior to prescribing butalbital, aspirin, caffeine, and codeine phosphate capsules, and monitor all patients receiving butalbital, aspirin, caffeine, and codeine phosphate capsules for the development of these behaviors and conditions. Risks are increased in patients with a personal or family history of substance abuse (including drug or alcohol abuse or addiction) or mental illness (e.g., major depression). The potential for these risks should not, however, prevent the proper management of pain in any given patient. Patients at increased risk may be prescribed opioids such as butalbital, aspirin, caffeine, and codeine phosphate capsules, but use in such patients necessitates intensive counseling about the risks and proper use of butalbital, aspirin, caffeine, and codeine phosphate capsules along with intensive monitoring for signs of addiction, abuse, and misuse.

Opioids and barbiturates are sought by drug abusers and people with addiction disorders and are subject to criminal diversion. Consider these risks when prescribing or dispensing butalbital, aspirin, caffeine, and codeine phosphate capsules. Strategies to reduce these risks include prescribing the drug in the smallest appropriate quantity and advising the patient on the proper disposal of unused drug . Contact local state professional licensing board or state controlled substances authority for information on how to prevent and detect abuse or diversion of this product.
