Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Headache is not known as a side effect of Donnatal. In my opinion this symptom is not related to the medication. I suggest you to use a painkiller such as Ibuprofen for relief.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
