User Reviews for Naproxen

naproxen: I take this for significant pain caused by osteoarthritis. Before my GP put me on it I was losing every morning to barely being able to walk on my knee due to the pain. Started seeing results in less than 24 hours. I was prescribed another medicine with it to prevent side effects, and some other pain killers so sometimes a bit ashamed of the combination, but for the first time in years I am almost entirely pain free all day every day.

Naprelan (naproxen): Works great. No noticable side effects. Cost is pretty high, but my insurance covers it.

Naprelan (naproxen): Works great. Love it.

Naprelan (naproxen): Works GREAT. Take it once a day and I'm done. Cost is outrageous though.

naproxen: I have been taking Naproxen for 7 months 500mg and it is very effective but does have an impact on the stomach. I recently caught gastroenteritis and what normally lasts for 48 hours lasted 11 days, which may have been down to my weakened stomach lining. I was dehydrated and lost 1.5 stone. I am now going to try and manage the pain with ibuprofen and paracetamol.

naproxen: I've used naproxen sodium for five years (500 - 1000mg daily as needed) with no side effects. I am 66 years old.

Aleve (naproxen): My hip and shoulder have hurt for years and I have always taken Bayer aspirin and I tried Aleve arthritis gelcap. To my surprise the pain in my hip and shoulder went away for 8 hours. The only thing I don't know is how long I could take the stuff, the bottle said do not take for longer than 10 days. The warning label about it could cause stroke or heart attack did raise questions.

naproxen: I suffer from severe arthritis due in part to extensive cervical fusion. About 2 months ago my doctor prescribed Naproxen and I am pleasantly surprised with the results so far. While I am not a fan of NSAIDs *any* relief from this pain is worth the risk. It doesn't do much for breakout pain but when I get that nagging pain in my neck it does help, but only in conjunction with a pain killer.

Naprosyn (naproxen): Did its job but made me lethargic.

Aleve (naproxen): I take one Aleve in the morning, one at night and can't believe the relief I've experienced from painful, arthritic knees.

Naprosyn (naproxen): Helped the inflammation and pain, but gave me insomnia.

naproxen: I took Naproxen for eight months before my doctor associated it with the severe side effect of my throat swelling and the feeling of something stuck in my throat, stomach bleeding and neck pain and enduring an oesophagoscopy.

naproxen: This drug works very well on alleviating the osteoarthritis pain but once in a while I get a side effect. Specifically, it is stomach upset, and randomly it is a metallic taste in my mouth.

naproxen: Effective 12 hour pain medicine but caused significant long term gastro-intestinal disruption.

Naprosyn (naproxen): I can certainly tell a difference when I don't take Naprosyn. I take 500 mg twice a day if needed.

naproxen: I have been using Naproxen 500mg for a heel spur and it turns out it is working on my knee cap arthritis. I eat well and then take the pill with milk so not to kill the lining of my stomach. This pill is a wonder drug for treating arthritis especially on the knee cap. I will have to tell my doctor when I see him for my last Orthovisc injection. It has made a huge difference for me.

Naprelan (naproxen): My Dr. prescribed Naprelan for me on March 10th..By March 12th. my condition had improved 85%!!! Ladybugluv

naproxen: Naproxen has helped my pain a lot. Just remember to take it with food.
