| 3 | back pains | On 2nd wk ov tablets started feeling sick like hunger pains even tho i ad eaten pain between my breast bone still making me feel sick now and again i av stopped taking them 3 days ago | F | 34 | 9 days 500mg | 11/26/2012 | 3 | heel spur was cutting into tendon | Took first dose with food and attempted to finish the last 4 hours of my work shift. Was dizzy, nauseated and very sleepy. When I woke up in the morning I had bloody drool all over my pillow, I could not find a cut in my mouth to account for it. I took my next dose with food and began getting dizzy and nauseated, this time with vomiting and noticed I was vomiting up some pinkish and red colors, I'd eaten scrambled eggs and had a glass of milk, nothing red. I took the next dose that night simply because I was liking not having intense pain in my foot even if the nausea and vomiting was troublesome. I continued to vomit with red stuff but when my urine started being pink I decided I better quit the dosage on the 3rd day, which was the 4th dose I'd taken. | I attempted a lesser dose of Naproxen Sodium in the OTC version of 220 mg thinking it was just to strong a dose for me. The nausea continued at a lesser dosage and still having bloody urine on day 4. So I can say that yes the medicine did help with the problem, but the side effects caused me to stop treatment using this particular class of drug. | F | 34 | 3 days 500 mg 2X day | 2/25/2015 | 1 | Neck pain | Confusion brain fog depression crying drowsiness | F | 34 | 7 days 500 2X day | 10/18/2020 | 1 | Back pain and menstrual cramps | Dizziness , spinning , nausea ,migraines , equilibrium off , foggy brain , crying , | If you can avoid taking this drug all together , do. I am now never going to touch it again . I was having back and period pain simultaneously and took two every few hours for a week . Nothing helped Ruth the pain but this . Next time , I would rather suffer through any pain than be sick for over three weeks from it . The poisoning side effects have yet you go away but I'm praying . | F | 34 | 7 days | 9/7/2017 | 1 | Laparoscopy | heartburn, shortness of breath, diarrhea | I took it for five days, stoped it now for 2 days, but it's killing me!!!! I can't sleep at all because of the heartburn. I am soooo sad, because I was healthy, and now I feel I will never get better again! Because of this stupid drug I have experienced every pain that I never had before! DON'T TAKE IT! | F | 34 | 5 days 500 2X day | 2/13/2017 | 1 | Shoulder and neck inflammation | Blurred vision,feeling lighthead, dizziness, anxiety, constipation, dry mouth. | Took twice a day for bad inflammation. At first i thought the lightheaded and dizzy feelings were from the inflammation in my neck, but 5 days later i felt worse. I stopped taking this 2 days ago and still have the side effects, not as severe, but still there. | F | 33 | 8 days 250mg | 8/27/2016 | 1 | Neck/shoulder pain | Disorientated, reflux , headaches, extreme fatigue, worsening of anxiety to the point breathing felt a struggle, crying outbursts, | I took 1 dose and 3 days later I still feel extremely disoriented, no motivation/extreme fatigue and what I believe to be reflux (feeling of something in my throat, heat moving from stomach up chest) I would rather feel my back and shoulder pain than feel like this.. hoping things subside soon | F | 33 | 1 days 250mg 1X day | 1/31/2021 | 1 | Muscle strain | After 2 doses began to feel nausea, bad stomach cramps, and drowsiness. Could not leave house, felt like the flu. Did not help pain. Haven't taken for 24 hours and still feel awful. Do not take this pill! | F | 33 | 2 days 500 | 9/14/2013 | 2 | PAIN | SICK TO STOMACH | COULD NOT TAKE IT | F | 32 | 7 days | 12/4/2003 | 1 | Fractured foot | Heartburn, bruising, severe nausea, stomach cramps, limb tingling | The heartburn started not long after the first tablet and lasted about an hour. From then on I had severe nausea and cramps which lasted for about 8 hours, or more specifically, until I cried myself to sleep. My left eyelid turned purple and my limbs became tingly. The effects of that first pill have freaked me out so much that I haven't taken another (I'm supposed to take 3 a day). The side effects did distract me from the pain but in a sick joke kind of way! I'd rather have the pain of my injury than to take that evil drug ever again. | F | 32 | 1 days 500mg tabs | 2/6/2016 | 3 | infection in gums | Im getting bloating slight burning in stomach feeling hungry after eatting dry irritating throat heart palpitations | M | 31 | 1 days 500 mg | 7/18/2014 | 2 | ulnar nerve popping out of groove | Had an increase in nightmares. Tonight has been the worst. Really bad reflux, tightness in chest, difficulty breathing. | Going to stop taking it and hopefully side effects will go away soon. | M | 31 | 3 weeks | 7/17/2015 | 2 | Lower back pain | This drug has been taken with co-dydramol. After watching TV I felt anxiety on my chest and could feel my heart rate increasing. I did a little research on both drugs that I am taking and found that people have shown greater side effects of anxiety on Naproxen. I will continue to take it for a few more days to combat the pain but the anxiety is definitely there. If you suffer from depression or anxiety I would think twice about taking this drug. | M | 31 | 1 days 250mg 3X day | 12/26/2020 | 1 | Bulging disc and nerve pain(neck) | Constant nausea, no appetite, blaoting, stomach pain, chills | I'll try something else thank you very much - horrible! | M | 31 | 2 days | 9/23/2015 | 1 | wisdom tooth removed | Stomach burning feels horrible | F | 30 | 1 days | 11/25/2014 | 1 | Headaches | Within half an hour I felt sedated to the point that I was scared. Could barely talk or move had to lie down. Felt quite high and out of it. Fell asleep. When I woke up was the scary part I didn't know where I was or why I was there. I was in my own bedroom. Now I am anxious that it will happen again. Horrendous. Never ever again will I take naproxen. | Don't risk it. It's not worth it. Horrendous side effects. Very scary. Would not recommend particularly bad if you suffer from anxiety. | F | 30 | 1 days 100mg | 8/6/2017 | 1 | Lower back pain | Light headed/ dizzy, shortness of breath. Not taking this again. | M | 29 | 1 days | 10/17/2016 | 1 | Back and Neck Pain | Heartburn, chest pains, restless, loss of heat | I took this to help relieve some back and neck pain that I been having. I looked up what is a good one. This came up. I took 2(220mg). It said I can for adults but not 3 in a 24hr period. I took with water. After ate dinner, pho(vietnamese soup). Then drank more water. Woke up to tight chest and stomach, heartburn and threw up a little. Was able to sleep after. But woke up to tight chest and heartburn. It like a back and forth feeling.....this should not be over-the-counter. Especially reading into it after my side effects. It easy to overdose, no sorry not easy, you can accidentally overdose. | F | 29 | 1 days 220mg 1X day | 10/18/2020 | 1 | PAIN | I was taking naproxen before but now i see that i have palpitations! It takes about 10 hours to get back to normal again! | M | 29 | 7 days 500 | 11/4/2015 | 2 | Injury to both knees | Burning chest, Nausea, Abdominal pain, Heart Palpitations. I have plicae syndrome in one knee and bursitis in the other and the doc prescribed naproxen 500 mg 2x daily. The pain and inflammation is diminishing some what but the side effects are killing me!!! | M | 28 | 2 days 500MG | 12/13/2013 |
