Any one have any issues with Goody's powder? It's always been my go to for a headache. But, I just took one and vomited it all up. I hope it was because of the Water I used to wash it down. Maybe a bigger swallow than I could handle. After...I feel better besides the headache. I haven't noticed any other issues with medicine. Interested in if any others have had issues with medicines that I should be aware of. Thanks.

For information, I am 4 weeks post op.

Goody's Extra Strength Powder contains aspirin, caffeine, and acetaminophen.

The formulation of "Goody's Extra Strength Headache Powders" is currently 520 mg aspirin, 260 mg acetaminophen and 32.5 mg caffeine.

In my opinion that is too much aspirin for 4 weeks post-op sleeve, plus caffeine can lead to reflux. I would go with liquid Tylenol for headaches.

All that said, I suspect you are correct about the Water causing your issue. I would highly recommend discussing this with your doctor.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
