NAPROSYN  (NAPROXEN):  See also Warning section. Naproxen is used to relieve pain from various conditions such as headache, muscle aches, tendonitis, dental pain, and menstrual cramps. It also reduces pain, swelling, and joint stiffness caused by arthritis, bursitis, and gout attacks. This medication is known as a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). It works by blocking your body's production of certain natural substances that cause inflammation. If you are treating a chronic condition such as arthritis, ask your doctor about non-drug treatments and/or using other medications to treat your pain. Check the ingredients on the label even if you have used the product before. The manufacturer may have changed the ingredients. Also, products with similar names may contain different ingredients meant for different purposes. Taking the wrong product could harm you.   FDA Approval Date: 1982-04-15 (Sources: U.S. Centers for Medicare Services, FDA)

 1  Anti-inflammatory for joints Severe stomach cramping, diarrhea, muscle and joint aches, dull ache and occasional sharp pain in upper abdomen. The doctor, aka Pharmaceutical drug whore, pushed this drug on me to help resolve some mild inflammation issues. I almost immediately experienced all of the problems listed. I stopped taking it after 2 weeks and never returned to the doctor again. I went to a new doc because this did soo much damage to my stomach in 2 weeks that it gave me an ulcer. The new doc said it was an "allergic reaction". lol. This was a wake up call for me. I am now only using Eastern, natural medicines for my body. Since going all natural, I fixed my stomach and lost 16 lbs in 1 month. Be aware most Family Doctors are nothing more than the Pharmaceutical companies's drug whores. Pushing this stuff on their patients just because a pharm sales rep wears a short skirt and brings them bagels. M 30 14 days
Not sure 1X day
