Bad headaches?

Today is one week off vicoprofen--and I feel great except for two things: I'm still going to the bathroom a lot and by the end of the day I get bad headaches. Anyone else experience these?

I have been off  Vicoprofen and I am experiencing headaches too and Tylenol Max stregnth 1300mg usually helps but it is not helping. I was thinking it was due to my sinus problems that I have had the past few days but now I dunno. I have been off Vicoprofen 5 days and still have headaches. I heard that withdrawel symptoms usually only last 1 week. The DR can also give you meds to help but I am just trying it on my own.

Does anyone know how long these headaches last? It's been about four days straight now...

Medicinal rebound headaches.  I got them whenever I took Vicoprofen for extended periods of time.  I went to my doctor, and he put me on prednisone (steroids) for a month to wean me off the Ibuprofen part of the Vicoprofen that I was taking everyday, and was causing me the headaches.
