Sorry. I know this is so minute compared to the things I read here but I just wanted to see if anyone else has this problem. Thanks
I took it like candy for years. The combination of acetaminophen and caffeine gave me a "kick". Then I realized a few years ago that its a pretty harsh medication. I still have some in the house, but a bottle lasts me forever. My father took so much of it his stools turned black as a result, and he got a stern warning from his Dr. You may be experiencing caffeine headaches. Good luck to you.
