Aspirin Complex granules

Aspirin is one of the most recognizable pharmaceutical brands in the world, originally developed by the German company Bayer in 1897. Aspirin Complex specifically is a combination medication containing acetylsalicylic acid and pseudoephedrine hydrochloride, used for treating cold symptoms.

Historically, the trademark for Aspirin was lost or confiscated in many countries following World War I as part of war reparations, leading it to become a generic term in nations like the US and UK. However, in Germany and over 80 other countries, Aspirin remains a registered trademark of Bayer AG. The product is primarily manufactured in Bitterfeld, Germany, which serves as a global competence center for Bayer's over-the-counter tablets, though Bayer operates a global supply chain with various production sites.
