| 3 | Osteoarthritis | Took these for a few weeks, they did move the pain but I didn't feel safe taking them for a long time as I am over 65 and they can cause all sorts of problems.

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.
