Betsy,

The barbiturate in Fioricet, butalbital, may reduce the effects of Inderal if they're taken together for more than a few days.
There are other factors to be considered in addition to possible interactions between these two medications -- any health issues/conditions you may have, and ALL other medications you are taking including prescription medications, over-the-counter medications, dietary supplements, etc.
This question really needs to be addressed by your doctor.
Please keep me posted?
Welcome again,
Teri
