Hy,
Analgesics doesn't cause epistaxis, it does causes peptic ulcers. Actually, the mechanism of action of Analgesics itself includes that analgesics block the COX-1 and COX-2 inhibitors. Due to their blockage, PGE2 inhibitors act and stop secretion of PGE due to which peptic ulcers are formed in stomach.
Hope it helps
