ASPIRIN, 500 mg, acetylsalicylic acid coated tablets, How it works

The Aspirin ^® tablet provides fast and tolerable pain relief. Responsible for this is the active substance acetylsalicylic acid (ASA), which is contained in all Aspirin ^®products is included. Acetylsalicylic acid is one of the non-opioid painkillers and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and inhibits the formation of so-called prostaglandins (the body's own messenger substances). These messenger substances are involved in pain transmission and perception in the brain, they ensure increased sensitivity of the pain receptors in the body. The acetylsalicylic acid reduces the production of prostaglandins, which reduces the excitability of the pain receptors and thus the pain subsides.
