Excedrin Extra Strength Pain Relief Caplets For Headache Relief, Temporarily Relieves Minor Aches And Pains Due To Headache – 200 Count : Health & Household

Description

A well-known non-steroidal anti-inflammatory that has been used for more than a century, aspirin works is by blocking the body's production of prostaglandins in the peripheral nervous system. Aspirin helps to prevent the transmission of pain signals to the brain by stopping the production of prostaglandins. Acetaminophen, like aspirin, also appears to inhibits enzymes in the body that produce pain-causing prostaglandins. However, while aspirin inhibits prostaglandins in the peripheral nervous system, acetaminophen appears to focus its pain-fighting power in the central nervous system. This allows you to tolerate more pain, therefore providing pain relief. Caffeine has been shown to increase the potency of aspirin and acetaminophen - the two pain relievers in Excedrin Extra Strength - by up to 40 percent. This means less acetaminophen and aspirin is needed to relieve your headache when combined with caffeine. Tension headaches are your common, everyday headaches. They feel like there's a band being squeezed around your head, causing a dull ache on both sides. Sinus headaches are characterized by deep and constant pressure-like pain in the cheekbones, forehead, or bridge of the nose. This pain usually intensifies with sudden head movement or straining and is usually accompanied by symptoms such as fever, runny nose and clogged ears. Cluster headaches are commonly recognized as one of the most painful types of headaches. Cluster headaches cause intense, excruciating pain on one side of the head, often around the eye, through sometimes affecting the nose and other areas of the face, too.
