How does aspirin relieve the symptoms of the flu?
Aspirin would work as an analgesic, fever reducer, and anti-inflammatory (NSAID) agent. As an analgesic it helps with the headaches and body aches associated with the flu. As a fever reducer, it will help to bring a fever down. As an anti-inflammatory, it can reduce the body reaction to infection that causes the achy joints, tickling sensation in the respiratory system that adds to a cough and excess drainage and local reactions to the infection that the tissues in your nose and sinuses as well as in the throat, trachea and bronchial tubes, have to the presence of the virus.
All that said, remember that you should never use aspirin for anyone younger than 18.
