Goody's Extra-Strength Headache Powders (acetaminophen / aspirin / caffeine) for Migraine "I have used Goody powders for over 30 years and I have to say that the new packaging is the worst idea you could have came up with, also I have compared the powder in the new and old and there is a lot more in the old packs, I'm going to have to discontinue the use of your product as I see it isn't the same anymore. Bye Felicia, and if it ain't broke don't fix it!!!!! Frustrated in Georgia!!!!!"

Excedrin (acetaminophen / aspirin / caffeine) for Migraine "I've taken Excedrin for headaches and body aches since 1972, when I was in the US Army. Works very well most of the time. The only time I had a problem, was many years ago, I got a bottle that must have turned bad or expired. Had a vinegar smell, and caused dizziness within a short time of taking it. Advice, if the medicine has a sour smell, the aspirin content may have been altered, by age, or moisture, etc. Do not use."

Goody's Extra-Strength Headache Powders (acetaminophen / aspirin / caffeine) for Migraine "My husband and I dislike the new on the go packs. All of the powder doesn't come out so you end up having to tear it completely down both sides to lick or tap the remaining powder out. Every single time. It's annoying. The old packaging was better."

Excedrin (acetaminophen / aspirin / caffeine) for Migraine "I've used regular and migrane vesions of Excedrin and they have both work effectively. The pain relief is realized within 15 minutes of taking. I swear by this product and have used countless others when I did not have Excedrin at my disposal. I highly recommend this product."

Goody's Extra-Strength Headache Powders (acetaminophen / aspirin / caffeine) for Pain/Fever "As with most reviews I read, I am a loyal Goodys user for as long as I remember, lets just say 20++ years. I DO NOT like the new packaging, all of the medication does not come out you have to tap, wiggle and shake package and then you end up wearing part of it. I don't use them now half as much as I did, I have changed to Tylenol for the most part, you get a full dose with out the mess. Please change packaging back to the original."

Goody's Headache Powders (acetaminophen / aspirin / caffeine) for Migraine "I love these. And have taken them for years and years but this packaging is absolutely horrible! Go back to the fold packaging or sales will go down as you can see everyone's reviews are the exact same and we need it back!"

Goody's Extra-Strength Headache Powders (acetaminophen / aspirin / caffeine) for Pain/Fever "I have used Goody powders and BCs for over 30 years. The new stick packs are awful. They are hard to get the powder out of... always some left in package. Also there is not as much in the new package as in the old. Not sure who you think you are fooling."

Excedrin Migraine (acetaminophen / aspirin / caffeine) for Migraine "I'm a 44 yr old woman that just started to suffer from daily headaches 2 yrs ago. Got the MRI - etc etc etc. All clear. These migraines mainly cause a "bouncy" feeling and slight vertigo. I can feel the throbbing on my pillow and tinnitus. Lovely - huh? Somehow I manage to sleep pretty well because I've learned to stop worrying about it. Tried Tylenol - Advil- then Exedrine. Exedrine is the only one that helps. I take just one. It reduces any pain and helps the vertigo a little bit. And feel the benefits for a couple days. I try not to take more than one or two pills PER WEEK. I hate meds. Anyway- I love this stuff."

Excedrin Migraine (acetaminophen / aspirin / caffeine) for Migraine "I am a migraine sufferer and have been a test subject to many new migraine medicines over the years. When I don't have my doctor subscribed migraine medicine with me the best average day migraine medicine for me to take is excedrin. If I take it early on before the migraine gets to bad it will usually get rid of it but if I take it to late it will only reduce the pain but not eliminate it. But overall it is a very affective migraine medicine."

Excedrin Migraine (acetaminophen / aspirin / caffeine) for Migraine "Excedrin migraine is the only thing that works for my migraines. Because I try my best not to take medicine I will do everything to not take a pill unless I have to . Because I’ve learned that sometimes headaches come from dehydration I try my best to gulf down bottles of water . In this instance I lasted 3 days without taking medicine . I couldn’t take it no more . Soo finally took 2 Excedrins and within an hour I’m already feeling relief . This medicine is really a miracle medicine for me . Thank you !"

Excedrin Migraine (acetaminophen / aspirin / caffeine) for Migraine "I get migraines ALL THE TIME and Excedrin has always been my go-to, but usually I've been able to take it and go to sleep right after. Today unfortunately, I had to work. I didn't take anything before going to work (MISTAKE) and by the time it was lunch break, my migraine was at it's peak. I lost my vision almost completely, was in SOOO much pain and I felt so confused/in such a daze. I went to target and got Excedrin PRAYING for a miracle. I took 3 tablets due to severity of my migraine and WOW. One hour later, I FELT SO MUCH BETTER. My migraine deteriorated to a slight headache and I felt like I wasn't going to die. MIRACLE PILL"

Goody's Extra-Strength Headache Powders (acetaminophen / aspirin / caffeine) for Migraine "Not only did they reduce the amount in the packs but lots of the powered gets stuck in the corners of the packs and I can’t get it out. Been waiting impatiently for the old packs to return. Maybe they will but until then I’ll be using Excedrin Migraine. Works almost as well for me just not as fast as the old Goody’s. Y’all screwed this one up!"

Goody's Extra-Strength Headache Powders (acetaminophen / aspirin / caffeine) for Migraine "Obvious corporate strategy to lower the amount of powder and increase the price for new "on the go" packaging. For you idiots that changed a great product and are losing countless loyal customers... you need "to go." PS. Nice feature on your website for contacting you. I never see a reply. "Go figure""

Excedrin Migraine (acetaminophen / aspirin / caffeine) for Migraine "I LOVE Excedrin migraine, it's literally the only OTC pain reliever that completey gets rid of my migraines. Advil, and Tylenol just does not even touch my migraine to relieve it, but this is definitely my favorite migraine cure, gets rid of tension, light sensitivity, and all... I suffer chronic migraines due to genetics, and this I highly recommend for anyone suffering a bad migraine"

Excedrin Migraine (acetaminophen / aspirin / caffeine) for Migraine "Kills my migraines, but kills my stomach too. Sometimes I just have to decide which is the lesser evil. Intense migraines trump hours of burning stomach, but sensation of digesting razor blades trumps mild migraines. Know your body and medicate accordingly."

Excedrin Migraine (acetaminophen / aspirin / caffeine) for Migraine "I took this medication because I suffer from migraines. I never have taken it and since it said migraine I said I would try it. I took 2 pills which are 250mg each so 500mg in total. I literally felt my soul leaving my body in less than 15 minutes of taking it. I got pale, diarrhea, nausea, and after an hour of my heart rate so high and blood pressure so high I went to the hospital. I fainted at the hospital. They even said they don’t suggest this. It was so scary. If you suffer with anxiety, don’t try!"

Excedrin (acetaminophen / aspirin / caffeine) for Migraine "I have used Excedrin for approximately 15 years and it does the trick in probably about 95% of my headaches. There are a few that it does not stop but the trick really is taking it at the first sign of a headache and not waiting. Usual relief comes in approximately 15 to 20 minutes."

Excedrin Migraine (acetaminophen / aspirin / caffeine) for Pain/Fever "This medicine is the best. I have taken it for headaches, migraines, pains in foot and elsewhere throughout my body. Most of the time comfort comes in just a few minutes. Occasionally it does take longer or requires a second dose. Very rare though. I recommend if you are having to take these daily like I did to also get a stool softener as it can sometimes lead to constipation. Overall I take this instead of the Narcotics that doctors seem to want everyone to be hooked on. I only have to these every now and then now. I hope this helps someone looking for pain relief."

Excedrin Migraine (acetaminophen / aspirin / caffeine) for Migraine "Excedrin Migraine is a tiny little gift from God. I'm 28 and have been dealing with migraines my whole life. I just had a killer migraine about 30 minutes ago...one of those so bad that you feel nauseous, disoriented, and like your brain is swollen. I am feeling SO much better now and can continue with the rest of my day like normal. I truly think Excedrin Migraine works as good if not better than several onset migraine medications I've tried in the past. I keep a bottle in my car, my purse, and my office desk because I never know when a migraine will strike. Thank you Excedrin for making my migraines more manageable!"

Excedrin Migraine (acetaminophen / aspirin / caffeine) for Migraine "This is a wonder drug. I was an avid Advil user for years. Then one day the pain just wouldn't go away. My mom suggested excedrin migraine and I've never looked back. Within 15 minutes that awful pain is gone. 1-2 pills depending on how bad the pain is and you'll be feeling better in no time!"
