Hi,

BC Powder should not be taken on an empty stomach. BC Powder contains Aspirin (a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug) plus Caffeine is commonly used for the symptomatic relief of headache, joint pain, muscle pain, toothache and fever. Since Aspirin is known to cause gastritis or stomach upset, heart burn, nausea, stomach ulcers, and bleeding hence BC Powder should be taken with food.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
