How To Withdraw Percocet?

Trying to find out what is worse for me. I have taken fiorinal in the past, for migraine pain. Pain changed and got worse( now nerve pain) and was changed to percocets. I worry about addiction, and have been trying to get off percocets. My thought was that fiorinal was the lesser of two evils. What are your thoughts?

Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
Fiorinal and Percocets are the drugs used for treating headaches such as migraine. But both drugs can become dependency. So you need to take them with caution and under constant supervision.
Comparing the two, Fiorinal causes much less dependency. If possible, better to switch over. Kindly do it under medical supervision.
