I have been taking excedrin tension headache pills almost everyday because I have felt run down and in pain....I like the caffine it gives me quite the boost. Is it possible to get addicted to it? Anyone know. Don't see any warnings on the bottle.

" The addiction would only be psychological. There is a very small amount of caffeine in those. If you are taking it for tension headaches, then it probably isn't just the caffeine giving you a boost, it's the release of pain from the headache, the fact that any inflammation that may aggravate the headache is reduced.

However, if you are having to take it every day, you should talk to your doctor. Long term aspirin can cause stomach problems and any headache that goes on for more than a day or two should be checked out.

That's just my 2cents. :-) "
