Aspirin or acetylsalicylic acid (acetosal) is a drug in the family of salicylates, often used as an analgesic (against minor pains and aches), antipyretic (against fever), and anti-inflammatory. It has also an anticoagulant ("blood-thinning") effect and is used in long-term low-doses to prevent heart attacks. more at Wikipedia

When I have nothing else, aspirin seems to help enough to let me sleep. The best is the kind that dissolves in water. It starts working almost immediately and takes edge of head pain. Probably also helps thin blood, making pressure less in head.
