Question regarding Excedrin migraine and Excedrin tension headache medicine

So the Excedrin migraine has 50 mg of caffeine and 250 mg of aspirin. The Excedrin tension headache medicine has 500 mg of acetaminophen and 65 mg of caffeine.

My question is, because of the amount of caffeine in the medication, is there a good time in the day when you might not want to take the medicine because it could potentially keep you awake for longer, or does the caffeine in the medication not affect you like other caffeine from say, beverages?

Typically, I will take two Excedrin migraine at a time which is the maximum allowed limit in a 24-hour period. Since the Excedrin tension headache medicine dosages are a lot higher I was thinking about just taking one, but I wanted to get other people's opinions about it.

Thanks

@Lilnonames oh. Well that would have to be reserved for weekends because a drink of coffee and I'm gonna go to the bathroom too much and if I do that at work, oooooh watch out cause I'll get in trouble for using my rights afforded to me as a human being to go pee whenever I want.
