Aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid) belongs to the class of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and works by blocking the production of prostaglandins, chemicals that cause pain and inflammation in the body. Caffeine acts as a stimulant that can boost the pain-relieving power of aspirin by constricting blood vessels and aiding absorption. This synergy often leads to noticeable relief within minutes of taking the powder.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat Is BC Headache Powder?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eBC Headache Powder is a rapidly absorbed, over the counter pain relief powder formulated with 845 mg of aspirin and 65 mg of caffeine per packet.
