Default Abortive Headache Treatments??

Just curious as to how others are treating their daily headaches with abortive medications, analgesics and such. I haven't really been doing anything lately but my headaches have been getting worse so I'm going to need a more aggressive approach. Today I'm starting with Advil. My plan is to take it regularly for three days and then switch to Tylenol for three days to avoid rebound headaches and increased tolerance for either drug. I was prescribed Fioricet so I may rotate with that as well but it has caffeine.. which is a PCS no - no. Anyone else using a similar approach or have any better ideas?
