| 1 | Knee pain | Severe Burning pain upper stomach, almost faint, chills from pain | I hope i dont have a hole in my stomach | F | 58 | 1 days 500 | 9/4/2015 | 1 | Was prescribed for muscle pain&stiffness | Was prescribed Naproxen 500 4 days ago by my doctor to take twice a day with food for seven days then stop, and notify him of how it had been working or not for my pain and condition. I have been afraid to take it especially after reading the reviews and side effects. I can't be knocked down from this. Went through enough with my body adjusting to Levothyroxine for my hypothyroidism. I don't understand why I can't just take store bought Aleve which works just fine for my pain. Would rather suffer the pain than the debilitating side effects I have read about. Patients should be monitered with their doctor in the room immediately after taking this medication if it causes such horrible side effects. Not taking it now!! NO WAY!!!!! | Haven't even started this medication, and will not trust it!! | F | 48 | 1 days 500 mg 2x | 9/6/2015 | 1 | Siatica | My dad taken this had his tea when he's gone to bed he got up ran to the toilet and was sick loads and shivering when it wasn't cold he's not taking anymore! | M | 52 | 1 days | 11/8/2015 | 1 | back & shoulder pain | stomach ache, vomiting, trouble breathing, headaches dry mouth, burping | I only took HALF. a pill and felt like this. never taking them again im still in pain | F | 21 | 1 days 1/2 | 12/8/2015 | 1 | Shoulder Pain | Ears ringing!

Within 30 minutes the room started spinning, I couldn't walk, my heart and breathing were erratic and my stomach was bloated and I had heart burn. I haven't taken another dose as I'm still feeling sick and tired 2 days later. These tablets are awful!

Would rather have awful back pain. | F | 41 | 1 days 30mg | 12/27/2015 | 1 | Separated shoulder | Terrible stomach ace, dry mouth, chills. | Instructed to take 2x day. After the first day, I woke up in the middle of the night to stomach pains so bad I can't sleep: I haven't taken any more, and here I am on night 3 and it's just as bad. Makes me feel hungry in the middle of the night, but food makes it worse. Milk helps. Another in my house has similar effects. This stuff is awful, don't take it. Side effects worse than shoulder pain. | M | 27 | 1 days 500mg | 1/6/2016 | 1 | Syatica | Severe stomach pain and constant diarrhoea much worse than original condition.

Initially I was absultly fine however woke up the next morning and I felt so rotten couldn't eat or drink. I honestly would have just preferred to put up with the pain had I known it was going to do this to me. Be very cautious when taking this medication it is a beast. | F | 24 | 1 days 250 | 10/30/2015 | 1 | trapped nerve in back | Dizzyness,chest tightness,bloating and indigestion. | Took for one day.Dr advised to take first thing in the morn and then at lunch.Pharmacist said dosage was way to high.Stopped after one day and three days later still suffering from strange bloating sensations and indigestion.Now taking Omneprazole to combat side effects | M | 41 | 1 days 250mg | 10/30/2015 | 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 | 1 | Lower back pain | Chest pain, indigestion, heartburn, bloating, nausea, stomach pain and burning sensation in stomach. | Took one tablet 3 days ago and have been suffering with these side effects ever since. The logo of Aleve should be a skull and bones! It's poison... | F | 65 | 1 days 220mg | 2/26/2016 | 1 | Leg knee shoulder pain | 1 st day was fine-2x 250mg 2nd day felt dizzy and nauseous after morning dose, | Not taking it again | F | 66 | 1 days 2x250 | 2/24/2016 | 1 | Kidney stone pains | Extreme nausea, vomiting frequently | While it helped with the kidney pains, it caused much more trouble with frequent vomiting. | F | 15 | 1 days | 4/21/2016 | 1 | Hip pain | Intense stomached pain, dizziness, nausea, felt like I'd did not know what to do with myself, panicky. Horrible!! | Did not notice any relief from the pain, neededtwo days off from work due to the side effects so far and still feel awful | F | 43 | 1.5 days 500mg 2X day | 10/23/2015 |
